Methodological and informational approaches to improving the level of digital competencies of high school students

currently, the development of digital competencies in high school students receives much attention in educational institutions. Digital competencies of students are associated with personal and psychological characteristics that allow students to know themselves, other people and society, as well as manage them through understanding digital technologies. In order to adapt to the educational needs of the digital era, digital competency development programs should make full use of network platforms and digital resources to create a diverse and interactive learning environment. This environment not only ensures the transfer of traditional knowledge, but also integrates elements of digital competency development. The formation of digital competencies in high school students is possible using a methodology based on the distribution of digital competencies in three important areas: learning and innovation skills; information and media technology proficiency; life and career skills. At the same time, the development of digital competencies of high school students, as an element of life skills, includes direct training in digital competencies, as well as providing emotional support, increasing competence in relationships and promoting the acquisition of experience in working in a team. In practical terms, the methodology for teaching digital skills uses a group approach. The use of a group approach is due to the fact that it allows for the use of a method of group counseling of students, focused on the analysis of specific actions taken to solve the problem proposed to each student with subsequent reflection, which ensures the activity, mobility and dynamism of the process of developing digital competencies of high school students. Information approaches to the formation of digital competencies consist in the use of various degrees of independence in completing tasks and solving proposed problems, as well as creating an information environment for consultations and a more in-depth analysis of the problems proposed for solution.
