Resumo

Esta revisão sistemática da literatura (RSL) explora como estudos acadêmicos contemporâneos (2020-2025) têm abordado a avaliação de competências digitais docentes no contexto do ensino superior online. Seguindo o procedimento de Okoli e o protocolo PRISMA, 25 artigos revisados por pares foram selecionados e sintetizados utilizando as análises bibliométrica, textual e temática, sendo, posteriormente, classificados segundo a tipologia de instrumentos proposta por Mattar, Ramos e Lucas (2022). Os resultados identificaram 56 referenciais teóricos e modelos, além de 18 instrumentos, revelando um cenário metodológico diverso e globalmente distribuído. Registrou-se a predominância de metodologias quantitativas e de instrumentos autoavaliativos, sobressaindo-se entre eles o DigCompEdu Check-In, amplamente aplicado a diferentes contextos educacionais e culturais. A análise evidenciou ainda a falta de transparência na descrição e partilha dos instrumentos, frequentemente sem nome, sem apêndices ou com exposição metodológica insuficiente, a suscetibilidade a vieses cognitivos característica dos instrumentos de autoavaliação dominantes no corpus, e o recurso a instrumentos ad hoc sem validação nem partilha adequadas. Conclui-se que o campo da avaliação de competências digitais requer maior contextualização, diversificação metodológica e rigor científico para apoiar melhores práticas educacionais no atual contexto de transformação digital.

I have over 15 years of experience in Higher Education and professional Education, mainly dedicated to distance learning. I have a PhD and a Master’s in Education and Digital Technologies in Information Technology and Communication - ICTs in Education, both at the University of Lisbon. My PhD thesis titled Development of e-DigCompEdu: a framework for teaching digital competences in higher education online is waiting PhD defence date. I had the opportunity to work as a tutor, professor and research assistant, guest professor in the assistance to the coordination of the master’s degree in Education and Digital Technologies (distance education) in the University of Lisbon. I have experience in course development, instructional design, training, and consulting. I am a researcher working in the field of digital competence, with relevant publications in this area and I am the author of the tool www.digcomptest.eu, which promotes the assessment of the proficiency level in digital competence of educators. I was visiting researcher at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM), member the Educational Technologies Research Group (GPTEd) and had research projects funded by the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) and by the Coordination of Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), both on digital competences in education.
