Estudi de la UE: Bretxes d'Alfabetització Digital Entre els Joves de 14 anys
Un estudi de la Comissió Europea revela que el 43% dels estudiants de 14 anys de tota la UE no tenen competències digitals bàsiques. Els estudiants d'entorns socioeconòmics més alts superen constantment els seus companys, subratllant la influència dels nivells d'educació dels pares i dels recursos de la llar. En particular, les noies superen els nens en un 7,9% de mitjana, però les dones només constitueixen el 20% dels especialistes en TIC a la UE. ( Comissió Europea, Espai Europeu d'Educació)
A new global study of over 80,000 parent reports shows that passive high screen time in children aged 4–6 is linked to lower well-being. The study, published in April 2025, found that higher screen time correlates with issues in psychosocial well-being, social functioning, parent-child relationships, and behavioral functioning. However, the researchers emphasize that the type and context of digital content also play significant roles in these outcomes. They suggest that parents can mitigate negative effects by moderating screen time, choosing high-quality educational content, and engaging in tech activities with their children. (Medical Xpress)
A recent survey reveals that 57% of parents feel disconnected from their children’s modern career goals, such as becoming content creators or e-sports professionals. Half of the surveyed kids say their parents don’t take these aspirations seriously. Interestingly, 84% of parents also admit that tech use has helped their children become more creative, empathetic, and socially skilled. According to the study, the top 5 dream jobs among 11–17-year-olds are video game designer or tester, software developer, teacher or tutor, content creator or streamer, and graphic designer—reflecting a strong interest in both digital creativity and hands-on learning.
