Summary:
Teachers of 2021 need to have highly developed digital skills and be familiar with modern technologies that can be used in the educational process. At the same time, it is important to have a model that will help evaluate these two areas. This paper presents the design, implementation and application of an electronic assessment model aimed at teachers and aims to assess their Digital Skills and their knowledge regarding Modern Technologies 2021, which are applicable to the educational process. The inspiration for the creation of this model came from the identified lack of evaluation models that evaluate these two fields and are addressed to teachers. In order to create the model, it was first deemed necessary to search and record the Modern Technologies of 2021, which are applicable in education, and the Digital Skills that a teacher of 2021 must possess, in order to use these technologies in the educational process. This was done because these were the two areas that the model would evaluate. Through search and recording, two classifications were created, on which the creation of the model was based. The created model was tested on 26 students of the Inter-institutional Curriculum "Information and Communication Technologies in Education", who attended the course "Modern Digital Technologies and Internet", in the purpose of examining its functionality and usability. The students answered two different Self-Assessment Tests, one at the beginning of the semester, before attending the course, and one at the end. From the analysis and comparison of the results of the 2 Tests, there was an improvement at the results in the 2nd test, for most of the students, but not to such an extent that it enables us to draw conclusions that there was a substantial improvement at the Digital Skills of the students and their knowledge of Modern Technologies.
