Council of Europe member states should strengthen online education, and do more to support teachers and students in transitioning to new computer-based learning tools, PACE has said.
Approving a report by Lord Alexander Dundee (United Kingdom, EC/DA), PACE’s Standing Committee said schools, universities and libraries needed more help to transition from “blackboards and books” to interactive and, where appropriate, individualised online education.
States should remove barriers and reduce inequalities in access to online learning, set high quality standards, ensure online study is appropriately recognised when awarding diplomas, and encourage supportive online networks between schools and colleges.
