ALLEA statement in response to the European Commission’s call for evidence on digital education and digital skills

ALLEA concludes that, in order for the EU’s Digital Education Action Plan to be successful, a systemic approach is needed that addresses teaching and learning at different levels: policy, research, curriculum design, teacher education, and practice. In addition, ALLEA argues that a greater emphasis be placed on interdisciplinarity, the integrated nature of digital technologies with STEM education, and the critical roles of empirical educational research, initial teacher education and teachers’ professional development.
