Abstract

The objective of the paper is to stimulate a scientific reflection about the conceptual and practical definition of the digital competence and, especially, of the critical analysis. This proposal is deepened in the research project about “ digital capabilities and social capital” in the Observatory Mediamonitor Minori, Sapienza. The reference framework is the one by P. Celot and J.M. Pérez Tornero (2009), re-built in this case through the comparison with others International patterns. It introduced 5 levels of digital competence (comprehension, critics, culture, creative and citizenship). The paper is focused to create an analytical and procedural pattern for the assessment of the digital competences in the international framework. Specifically, this paper focuses on the operational definition of the second level of the digital competence (critics). The process of the operationalization of this level is a basic step to select the measurable indicators and to plan evaluation tools of the capabilities connected to the critical analysis applied to digital media. This paper is structured in these following phases: - introduction of the research project; - theoretical definition of the critics; - construction of the pattern starting from semiotic and linguistic patterns of the literature; - hypothesis of operationalization of case study. • Patton, M.
