On Wednesday, August 30th, 2023, the closing conference of the ‘Raising Digital Competence’ project, known as DIGDAKTIKA, took place at Cankarjev dom in Ljubljana. It brought together numerous lecturers, participants, sponsors, innovators, and distinguished guests from Slovenia and abroad. The conference was a real treat for all those interested in the potential and development of digital technologies.
The conference program was exceptionally diverse, featuring 92 speakers who discussed the latest trends and challenges in education driven by the rapid development of digital technologies.
Nearly 800 attendees gathered at Cankarjev dom, with an additional 12,940 participants joining DIGDAKTIKA remotely. Attendees had the opportunity to listen to educators and teachers who demonstrated practical activities to guide and support learners in enhancing their digital competencies, emphasizing digital literacy, effective communication and collaboration methods, digital content creation, and empowering responsible users and problem solvers.
A notable feature of the conference were the extracurricular Teachmeet sessions held during breaks, along with the challenge involving Chat GPT, adding a unique element to the conference.
Thanks to all the participants who contributed to the program and technical execution, the closing conference of the DIGDAKTIKA project was an outstanding event. With its combined format, numerous attendees, and rich program, it undoubtedly marked the beginning of a new school year and set the stage to become the successor of the legendary SIRikt conference.
The DIGDAKTIKA/DIGDACTICS conference will mark the conclusion of the project Raising Digital Competence, the purpose of which was to promote the development of innovative learning environments that contribute to the raise of digital competence of management and education staff, children, pupils and students.
At the conference with international participation, we will present the results of the project within which we designed, tested and evaluated diverse solutions for the development of digital competence of management and education staff, children, pupils and students.
