at the University of Bayreuth and online via Zoom (hybrid format)

UBCDE 2022

BAYHOST and the Center for Teaching and Learning in Higher Education (FBZHL) at the University of Bayreuth organized the "Ukrainian-Bavarian Conference on Digital Education" from June 23-24, 2022, on-site in Bayreuth and online as a stream.

The conference aimed to provide knowledge about modern IT concepts and tools in education and to enable an exchange of experiences about them. The University of Bayreuth is advancing the German-Ukrainian exchange on the digitalisation of teaching-learning processes with two projects. The DAAD-funded Learnopolis+ project is working with partners in Lviv, Ternopil and Vinnytsia (Donetsk) to develop Massive Open Online Courses for the continuing education of university teachers. The framework for this is UTTERLY (Erasmus+ KA2), which establishes uniform competence standards, curricula and certification processes in this area.
