Abstract

To promote the digital competencies of learners at the vocational certificate level, active microlearning management is a learning model that encourages learners to acquire digital competencies that are suitable for future career development and one which means that the students receive practical training in such a way as to achieve sustainable learning. Digital competency skills will help learners adapt appropriately to technological changes. The active microlearning model can be used to promote the digital competency of learners at the vocational certificate level. It is a learning model which has been developed from two learning approaches, namely  active learning and micro learning and is a model that emphasizes practical practice and self-learning.

From the research process, it has been found that the active microlearning management model promotes the digital competency of learners at the vocational certificate level. In the Digital Technology for Career course, it was developed into a learning model incorporating 4 learning elements: 1) Determining learning objectives, 2) Planning and action, 3) Presenting knowledge, 4) Summarizing and evaluating. It can be used to develop learning and effectively promote digital competency skills, both of which are essential skills in the digital era.
