Abstract:
This study sought to translate and validate the Digital Competence Scale for University Students among Kazakhstani undergraduate students aimed at the Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) educator diploma (n = 202), and also to discover the status quo of their digital competence. The translation and trans-cultural validation of the scale produced a bi-factorial 10-item instrument, like the original. The questionnaire evidenced acceptable validity and reliability. On average, the participants reported a medium digital competence score. Practical implications and directions for future research are provided.
Keywords – DC-US, survey, technology, undergraduate students. |
