From, in and about the Hub
|

Dear Hub members,
|
We are excited to bring you the latest news, updates, and opportunities as we venture into the heart of autumn. There is so much happening, and we want to ensure you don't miss a beat.
In October we have dived headfirst the theme of hackathons to hone our skills and get ready for the DigiEduHack 2023 edition, which takes place from 6 to 13 of November. We would now like to take the discussion further with a deep dive into the world of digital skills in November. In our upcoming monthly theme, we will be exploring the tools, techniques, and knowledge needed to thrive in the digital age. Expect inspiring content and activities that will help you sharpen your digital prowess! We look forward to connecting with you at our Knowledge Building Activity on 'How to empower teachers with a critical vision on digital competences', Teachers as Researchers sessions, and in discussions throughout the various channels of the Hub.
Active Engagement Wanted: We are counting on your active participation! Our 'Calls to Action' are buzzing with opportunities. Whether it is on digital education and publishing in the Hub, making use of the Hub tagging system or providing your feedback on the Hub, we invite you to give your unique perspective to the Hub's growing body of knowledge. Moreover, your valuable input will help us better understand the needs and aspirations of the Hub, ensuring that we can continue to provide the support and resources you require. Have your say and fill in our third peer-learning feedback survey.
Stay engaged, stay inspired, and see you around in the Hub!
