Problem statement. The goal of this study is to conduct a theoretical analysis of the three most commonly used self-reflection tools that evaluate educators' digital competences: SELFIEforSchools, SELFIEforTEACHERS, and the Digital Competence Wheel. The research seeks to address two key questions: 1) what digital competences are crucial for educators in the present day? 2) which assessment tools have been extensively validated for measuring these competences? Methodology . A pilot test was conducted on the Digital Competence Wheel to assess its potential for evaluating digital competences and its potential application in higher education settings. Results . The unprecedented use of technology in education and training as a result of the pandemic COVID-19 has been recorded. This shift to online learning has accelerated and introduced new challenges and changes to educators' roles and skillsets. The growing demand to develop and utilize proper digital competences in the teaching environment has become an essential component of modern higher education systems. Conclusion . Digital competences encompass a combination of knowledge, skills, and attitudes related to the effective use of technology for performing tasks, problem-solving, and secure, creative, independent, and ethical communication. The Digital Competence of Educators framework is one of the two main comprehensive tools specifically designed to support educators, teachers, and trainers.

Постановка проблемы. Анализируются плюсы и минусы трех наиболее часто используемых инструментов саморефлексии, оценивающих цифровые компетенции преподавателей: SELFIEforSchools, SELFIEforTEACHERS и «Колесо цифровой компетентности» (Digital Competence Wheel). Исследование направлено на решение двух ключевых вопросов: 1) какие цифровые компетенции являются ключевыми для педагогов в настоящее время? 2) какие инструменты оценки широко применяются для измерения этих компетенций? Методология. Проведено пилотное тестирование «Колеса цифровых компетенций» для оценки его потенциала и возможности применения в системе высшего образования. Результаты. Зафиксирован беспрецедентный уровень использования технологий в образовании и обучении как итог пандемии COVID-19. Переход к онлайн-обучению изменил требования к роли и компетенциям преподавателей. Растущая потребность в развитии и использовании соответствующих цифровых компетенций в учебной среде стала важнейшим компонентом современных систем высшего образования. Заключение. Цифровые компетенции включают в себя совокупность знаний, навыков и установок, связанных с эффективным использованием технологий для выполнения задач, решения проблем и безопасного, творческого, независимого и этичного общения. Система «Цифровые компетенции педагогов» (The Digital Competence of Educators Framework) - один из основных инструментов, специально разработанных для поддержки педагогов.
