TunisiaUfM webinar: How the challenges posed by the acceleration of digital transformation of higher education in the Mediterranean can be transformed into opportunities
The UfM Secretariat organised last week a webinar on how the challenges posed by the acceleration of digital transformation in higher education due to the covid-19 pandemic can be transformed into opportunities for the improvement of the quality and inclusiveness of teaching. Eight speakers, representing students, teachers, higher education leaders and policymakers – shared their experiences and their point of view on how the current situation might have an impact in the long run.
The UfM Secretary General, Nasser Kamel, opened the session highlighting the need of revising the regional strategy on higher education.
Participants shared many ideas, such as promoting Internationalization at Home through online tools, enhancing digital skills and competences of students and staff, building partnerships with companies and IT services, or moving beyond emergency solutions through a holistic approach addressing critical issues such as inequalities and the digital divide.
