Mapping Methodological Approaches to Critical Digital Literacy Among TVET Instructors: A Scoping Review

Digital competence frameworks for teachers have proliferated, but whether their critical, reflective dimension has been examined among technical and vocational education and training (TVET) instructors remains uncharacterized. This scoping review characterized the methodological approaches, conceptual operationalizations, and evidence gaps in peer-reviewed research on critical digital literacy (CDL) among TVET instructors. Following Joanna Briggs Institute guidance and reported per PRISMA-ScR, Scopus was searched on 3 July 2026 using a Population-Concept-Context strategy, restricted to English-language, peer-reviewed literature from 2013–2026. Eligible sources were charted against a framework combining bibliographic, PCC, and methodological data items. Eighty sources met the eligibility criteria. Results included sources concentrated in Western, Northern, and Southern Europe (30.0%) and Southeast Asia (27.5%, including Indonesia at 22.5%), with smaller shares from East Asia, Eastern Europe/Central Asia, and other regions. Quantitative survey designs accounted for roughly half of charted approaches, while qualitative, configurational, and computational designs were comparatively rare. Nine concept-operationalization categories emerged, with an explicit critical-reflective or ethical dimension reported in only 11.2% of sources. An evidence gap map identified 22 of 54 (40.7%) concept-by-context combinations with no charted source, most notably critical-reflective framing paired with Southeast Asian settings. Research on CDL among TVET instructors relies heavily on a single methodological mode and has not yet reconciled structured competence frameworks with the construct’s critical-reflective dimension, particularly outside Europe. Priority directions include region-specific research on critical-reflective CDL in Southeast Asia, a dedicated CDL-specific instrument, and continued tracking of the emerging artificial-intelligence-related sub-theme.

Beyond Functional Skills: A Systematic Review of Critical Digital Literacy in Vocational Teacher Education

The convergence of artificial intelligence, digitalization, and social media has exposed the insufficiency of functional digital literacy as an educational outcome, intensifying attention to Critical Digital Literacy (CDL) as a construct concerned with the ideological and structural logics of digital platforms rather than mere operational use. CDL scholarship nonetheless remains fragmented and lacks a stable, shared taxonomy of its dimensions. This study reports a systematic literature review, following the PRISMA 2020 protocol, of CDL in educational contexts. A Scopus search yielded 130 records, narrowed to 73 after automated screening and to 49 after a stringent CDL-focus eligibility criterion. Qualitative designs dominate the corpus (~55%), followed by conceptual work (~31%), while validated quantitative measurement remains rare (four studies). Inductive synthesis identifies eight recurring CDL dimensions, spanning critical-analytical, socio-political, ethical, identity-based, productive, and civic concerns. None of the 49 included studies directly addresses vocational (VET) teacher education, despite vocational teachers' need to combine technical fluency with critical disposition. Five gaps are identified, concerning measurement instruments, the functional-versus-critical divide, affective dimensions, institutional barriers, and generative AI, with future directions proposed. The synthesis is a necessary step toward a dedicated CDL framework for pre-service vocational teachers.
