SELFIE Forum 2021

We welcome you to a new edition of the SELFIE newsletter announcing our annual event that takes place on the 7-8 October. Although, we would have liked to meet with you in person, due to COVID-19 restrictions, this edition will run online. The SELFIE Forum is always a great opportunity to meet with different stakeholders related to the SELFIE tool. You will have the opportunity to listen to great keynote speakers, meet policy makers and network with other teachers and school leaders who might be facing the same challenges as you in their school’s digital integration, amongst other attendees. In this edition of the Forum, we will also launch the Work-Based Learning module and also present to you a new tool specifically designed for teachers: SELFIEforTEACHERS. We wish you a great beginning of the academic year and we encourage you to register to our event and enrol in our workshops. We look forward to meeting you all on the 7-8 October!

The event will welcome school leaders, teachers, students, trainers, national coordinators, policy makers, researchers, practitioners and future potential users.

The Forum will focus on providing ideas and inspiration for schools to create their own action plan and take a step forward in terms of their digital empowerment.

It is organised by the Joint Research Centre in association with the Directorate-General for Education, Youth, Sport and Culture, and with the collaboration of the Directorate General for Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion.

Commissioner Mariya Gabriel, responsible for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth, and Commissioner Nicolas Schmit, responsible for Jobs and Social Rights will both participate.

The forum will also cover:

  • The launch of the Work-Based Module (WBL) to bring Vocational Education and Training (VET) institutions and companies closer in discussing how they jointly embed digital technology in the education and training provided. Watch the promotional video
  • The presentation of SELFIEforTEACHERS, a new self-reflection tool designed to support the development of the teachers’ digital skills inside and outside of the school. A dedicated workshop will look specifically at teacher digital competence and how the tool can support professional learning planning.
