Abstract

In the context of digital transformation in education, digital competence is regarded as a “guiding compass” that enables students to enhance their learning outcomes and improve their employment prospects in an increasingly competitive environment. This study was conducted with junior and senior students from various academic disciplines at Ho Chi Minh City University of Education (HCMUE). Survey results indicate that these students are proficient at digital competence. Based on these findings, this study provides a foundation for proposing measures to further enhance digital competence among HCMUE students.
