In 2020, SELFIE became even more relevant with the start of the COVID-19 restriction measures. The number of users suddenly increased from September to December 2020, as more specific questions about distance teaching and learning arose from schools and teachers seeking guidance on adapting their remote teaching.
In response, a new version of SELFIE was launched at the end of summer 2020, containing new questions on online and blended learning to help schools assess students' needs beyond access to equipment, and focus on digital teaching and learning strategies that support students' learning autonomy and resilience. The new version of the tool also enables schools to reflect on eight key areas linked to the integration of digital technologies in education, from leadership and infrastructure to teaching and learning practices. This will help to identify what has worked well and what has not, and to prioritise actions based on the specific needs of students and teachers.
