ITworldEdu is a summit on technological innovation in education that brings together the highest representatives of the sector for the purpose of discovering educational solutions and reflecting together in the educational world. This time it will take place on May 16 and 17 at the Hesperia Barcelona Tower Hotel & Convention Center.

In this edition we will address how ICTs should respond to educational needs with the aim of serving the entire educational ecosystem from all sides.

We must be able to use ICTs as a complement and essential support for:

• Promoting more contextualised and meaningful teaching and learning
• Raising a more formative evaluation that facilitates continuous monitoring of the learning process
• Managing the work environment and necessary resources more flexibly and efficiently

Other advantages that ICTs can offer us and that have been shared in the last two decades include: flexibility with space and time, adaptation to different paces of learning, the possibility of following more personalised schedules based on training needs and starting points for trainees.

Educational resources are still based on a very textual perspective, and for a real transformation of the educational system we need to include ICTs more intensively and decisively to harness all its multi-format and multi-channel potential to create a multiplier effect, as well as the ability to respond immediately with more personalised attention.

The Edutech Cluster is organising ITworldEdu in collaboration with Eurecat
