description Media pedagogical competence is critical for the modern-day adult educator. In the process of adult learning, both the use of digital media in the classroom and the transfer of knowledge in dealing with media are the basis for social participation and individual development that must be provided by teachers. However, at present little or no research has been conducted that assess media pedagogical competence of adult educators. Moreover, an instrument to measure media pedagogical competence was lacking. In order to redress these concerns, in the present paper an instrument for objectively measuring media pedagogical competence is designed and piloted with adult educators (n=622). The study provides the first results concerning objective measurement of adult educator media pedagogical competence.
