Abstract

This article examines the pedagogical significance of the competency-based approach in developing students’ information mobility in higher education. In the context of rapid digital transformation, students are expected not only to receive information but also to search, analyze, select, interpret, transform, and apply it effectively in academic and professional situations. Information mobility is considered as an integrative quality that combines digital literacy, cognitive flexibility, communicative readiness, independent learning skills, and the ability to adapt to changing information environments. The article emphasizes that the competency-based approach creates favorable pedagogical conditions for forming these qualities because it shifts the focus of education from passive knowledge acquisition to practical, problem-oriented, and self-directed learning. Special attention is paid to the role of interactive methods, project-based tasks, digital resources, critical thinking activities, and reflective assessment in strengthening students’ information mobility. The study argues that the development of information mobility contributes to students’ professional adaptability, academic independence, and readiness for lifelong learning. It is concluded that the competency-based approach is an effective methodological basis for preparing future specialists who can act flexibly, responsibly, and productively in a modern information society.
