Within the framework of the DIGI-HE project, led by the European University Association (EUA) and its sub-organizations, an instrument will be created which will help universities and colleges to assess their current position in the process of digitalization and which will also shows the opportunities to expand their digital capacities.
Digitalization is progressing steadily in our everyday lives. Higher education institutions and universities can no longer avoid digital learning spaces and opportunities. Especially in times of the corona virus, it is becoming obvious how important successful digitalization can actually be for the course of study.
Within the framework of the DIGI-HE (A strategic reflection on digitalisation at European higher education institutions),project, led by the European University Association (EUA) and its sub-organizations, an instrument will be created which will help universities and colleges to assess their current position in the process of digitalization and which will also shows the opportunities to expand their digital capacities. Indeed, such a tool already exists for schools (SELFIE), but not for European higher education institutions.
Currently, there are surveys conducted to assess the status of digitalization at the corresponding institutions. The survey is intended to depict the current status of digitalization, the respective strategies, effects and challenges at European universities and to inquire about experiences and expectations for the future. This is followed by an analysis of existing instruments for self-assessment with regard to digitalization for educational institutions. The results of the survey and the analysis are summarized in a report.
DIGI-HE is co-financed by the European Commission's Erasmus+ program and runs from January 2020 to December 2022.
