Journal Title: International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Analysis - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 11
Abstract
This study examines digital competencies among lecturers in Indonesian Maritime Vocational Colleges, aiming to analyze the relationship between lecturer profiles, institutional factors, and digital competency development. The research objectives focus on understanding how personal characteristics and institutional support mechanisms influence digital teaching capabilities while identifying effective strategies for enhancing digital competencies in maritime vocational education. Through a quantitative approach utilizing a comprehensive survey of lecturers across maritime institutions, the study employs DigCompEdu-based measurement tools to assess ten crucial dimensions of digital competency. The methodology combines questionnaires and structured interviews, analyzing data through confirmatory factor analysis and linear regression. Results reveal that while overall digital competency scores are above average on a Likert scale, significant variations exist across different competency domains. Digital tool usage demonstrates the strongest positive correlation with competency development, followed by attitudes toward technology. The study identifies age as negatively correlated with digital competency, while workload shows an unexpected positive relationship. Institutional factors, including curriculum support and professional development opportunities, significantly influence digital competency development. These findings contribute to understanding digital competency development in vocational education settings and provide practical insights for enhancing digital integration in maritime education institutions.
