The Potential of Making for Enhancement of Digital Competencies in Higher Education On the way of a concept development

An increasing interaction between man and machine in all areas of society leads to not only new job profiles but also initiates a discussion about the needed digital competencies in the future. The European Commission's Joint Research Centre has developed an initial framework to describe the needed competencies such as problem solving ability, capacity of teamwork and programming skills [5]. It is expected that the transfer of technical, occupation-oriented and personality-building competencies alongside subject-related knowledge will become increasingly important in higher education [1]. In order to avoid inequalities among students-those with and without so-called digital competencies - new teaching methods are needed. In this regard, the following poster creates a new link between the DigComp 2.1 framework for citizens and making in higher education based on a literature review.
