The YSKILLS (Youth Skills) project is funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 programme. The project aims to assess how digital skills mitigate the risks and opportunities associated with the use of ICT in Europe and identify actors and factors that can threaten or support children’s well-being in the digital age.
This report presents the digital skills indicator for young people (YDSI), a measurement tool containing 31 questions related to digital skills and knowledge, and is therefore “the only tool to measure young people’s digital skills that has been tested through a series of validation procedures”.
Extensive exploratory research enabled the project to identify four dimensions representing digital skills:
- technical and operational skills;
- information navigation and processing skills;
- communication and interaction skills;
- content creation and production skills
