TITLE
“To understand and improve digital skill at the workplace for transferring and utilising
information in an accurate manner.”
INTRODUCTION
In the present scenario, most of the operations and functions are performed by
organisation and individuals with the help of online tools and techniques. Virtual learning
environment is formulated by the organisation through providing gadgets that is providing new
and advanced technology (Claro, 2018). Students are learning different skill from virtual model
that is learned by individuals with the help of digital tools and techniques. Moreover, this report
highlights on the learning experience of University students that are enhancing their knowledge
through utilising virtual technique methods. Primary and secondary research will also be used for
collecting information and knowledge by formulating questionnaire to understand virtual
learning experience in this pandemic situation.
MAIN BODY
Objective
 To understand workplace digital skill and improved them for increasing the student
knowledge with help of virtual learning model.
 To analyse the importance of analysis related with information and convert them into
knowledge for obtaining right and accurate results.
 To formulate a better workplace by demonstrating competence related with data handling.
Literature review
According to the Jones Smith, 2020 it is identified that digital skills is the priority for all
individuals and organisation that are engage for accomplishing a similar purpose. It defines there
are various operations performed by university in order to develop better skill among students as
it also improves the working knowledge of individuals (Hung, 2018). Moreover, it provides
benefits to persons and university both. Developing digital skill is the priority for university that

is offering benefits to students, researcher and teaching staff. It also defines that by developing
digital skill individuals are able to work at the front of University.
From the perspective of Willams, 2020 digital and technology related skills are formulated
by organisation within the workplace for completing different task in an organised and
coordinated way. This also defines all individuals are engaged by organisation for completing
their work with digital skill as by engaging all persons management is able to generate better
results which satisfies needs and wants of customers in an accurate manner. Further, the existing
conditions of environment are complex so each and every individual face pandemic conditions to
complete their operations in an appropriate manner (Kaarakainen, 2018). But with the use of
online platforms individuals are able to perform their work with the provided training methods.
Along with this each person provide different perspective which generates separate view on the
university or organisation to perform their work. Virtual learning environment is the first method
that provides different learning experience to understand work conditions and complete work
according to current operations.
Research methodology
The term research is defined as the method that is used for creating knowledge about the
individuals, organisation or to understand a topic. Researcher also used the existing knowledge
method to generate right and accurate methods which provide and transfer all information in an
accurate manner. In context of this research individuals or students is able to understand all work
requirements because they all are ready aware about use of digital methods for completing their
work in an accurate manner. Moreover, researcher utilise the information for managing and
generating meaningful outcomes from operations. Primary and secondary researches are the two
methods which provide all information related with research. The in-depth detail related with
both perspective of research is mention as below:
Primary research study is designated as actual, firsthand accounts of the observe written
by means of a person who become a part of the examiner. With analysing the motive of research
it is defined that individual is completing research by utilising task and operations that provide
acknowledge associated with a particular topic. Virtual learning environment is distinct as the
tool which provides all information with use of digital methods. It also considers persons who are
engaged in the completion of research manage and complete the research by interacting with
individuals with the help of online tools (Khin, 2019). So the research is completed in an

accurate manner and it also collects information with a safe side because of emergency or
pandemic conditions in the environment. There are different strategies vary on how researchers
run a test or observe, however it normally follows the medical approach. One way researcher can
consider number one research is that it is commonly unique studies.
Secondary research study is defined as an analysis and interpretation of number one
studies. The method of writing secondary studies is to accumulate primary research that is
relevant to a writing topic and interpret what the primary studies located. This defines there are
various persons exists in complete of research methods and most of them identify analysis which
define importance of digital platform. For instance, secondary research frequently takes the shape
of the results from two or extra number one studies articles and explains what the two separate
findings are demonstrated as results of research (Kraus, 2018). Or, the author may additionally
have a specific topic to write down about and will locate many portions of primary studies and
use them as records in their subsequent article or textbook. This also defines there are various
operations and functions is used by management and it conduct that task which is related with
business defines researcher topic is to identify and understand tools related with technology and
digital platforms.
Sampling method is defined as the method that is collecting all information and utilising
it for collection of all information in an accurate manner. This also defines large number of
respondent provide their perspective about the topic. But it is rarely possible to utilise them all so
with sample technique it is easy to gain information from individuals that actually participate in
research. Probability and Non-probability are two sample methods which collect information and
utilise them in completion of research in an accurate manner. Moreover, in probability sampling
information is gathered from perspective of overall group and on other side, non-probability
sampling only collect initial data or information.
In last, for the research of virtual learning model all information is gathered with the use
of primary research methods. This also defines information and research relates with individuals
conduct better options as it is complete research according to current requirements. For the
selection of sample probability sampling method is used that allow information to complete work
with right data (Quan-Haase, 2018). The sample size for this research is 21 that represent a whole
group of research.

Interpretation- With the use of information it is identified that organisation is completing work
with motive of defining task. This also consider persons are manaing task that leads to manage
all task and operations in an appropirate manner as most individuals define and undertand virtual
learning refers to understand and use of digital tools.
Q3) Are you an existing user of the digital tools and models of an institute? Frequency
a) Yes 9
b) No 12

Interpreation- The above data represent that individuals are able to perform work with use of
digital tools because most of them are already existing user for the digital platforms that provide
better understanding of organisational work (van Laar, 2019). This refers it works as a positive
point for organisation and helps to generate organised outcome from research. Further, research
conduct those perspective which boost efficiency to work with desired outcome as per current
requirements of research.

b) Microsoft power-point 9
c) Internet and Ms-excel 5

interpretation- By collecting all information it is identified that individuals are working with
notice of managing and completion of task through considering online tools that are used to
complete research with technology. There are three different methods utilise by students and it
consider that Ms-excel and internet technology are the right methods for completing research in
an accurate manner. This defines individuals are also focused to justify research techniques to
complete research properly (Sousa, 2019). This consider person also define methods that are
accurate and accommodate better learnin from online platform.
