Abstract

The project DiKoS – Analysis and Development of Digital Competencies of Students is a joint project of all higher education institutions in the Austrian Province of Styria. The project is dedicated to a comprehensive self-assessment of the digital competencies of first-semester students and their demands on modern technology-supported academic teaching, followed by the formulation of practical implications for academic teaching. In the winter semester 2019/2020, a total of 5.866 students received a matriculation number for the first time in Austria. Of these 5.866 first-year students, 4.676 could be questioned, which corresponds to a response rate of 79.7%.
