Abstract: This study explores the impact of the e-administration platform eAsistent on digital literacy and cognitive gains in 150 high school teachers at school center Šolski center Novo mesto, Slovenia. Results indicate that engagement with eAsistent enhances digital literacy by improving users’ ability to navigate digital tools efficiently, strengthens digital inclusion by fostering confidence in digital environments, and contributes to problem-solving and adaptability in digital tasks. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) revealed that intuitive platform design significantly contributes to cognitive engagement, with distinct user profiles emerging based on digital competence. Findings suggest that the platform eAsistent can serve as cognitive tool fostering͏ efficiency and problem-solving͏ skill ͏in education settings.͏ However, the study’s cross-sectional design limits the ability to draw definitive causal conclusions, highlighting the need for further research to assess long-term cognitive impacts.
