[CfP] Special Issue on „Applications of Educational Technology and AI in Educational Settings“ #research

I am happy to announce another Call for Papers for a Special Issue on „Applications of Educational Technology and AI in Educational Settings„

This Special Issue aims to investigate the transformative impact of digital technology and/or artificial intelligence (AI) in educational settings. As such, we are seeking educational technology solutions that add value to education with a strong focus on the technology used.
With rapid advancements, AI-powered tools like adaptive learning platforms, automated grading systems, chatbots, AI agents, AI avatars and a high number of different applications are changing the educational environment. Furthermore, digital technologies in general, including virtual classrooms settings or blended-learning situations as well as MOOCs, enhance accessibility and foster student engagement.
Therefore, we are seeking case studies and recent research exploring both the benefits and challenges of integrating digital technologies and AI in educational settings. Ethical considerations, teacher roles, open education and digital equity are also of interest, emphasizing the need for thoughtful implementation to maximize the potential of digital technologies in improving educational outcomes.

The deadline for the final submission, as well as further information, can be found here: [Link to the call]

[publication] Implementing a Technical Commission in a European University Alliance: Role and Processes in Unite! #zfhe

Our article about „Implementing a Technical Commission in a European University Alliance: Role and Processes in Unite!“ has been published within the issue „European University Alliances in Action“ of the Journal of Higher Education Development (ZFHE)

Abstract:
European University Alliances seek to integrate teaching, research, and administration across borders by aligning digital and internationalisation strategies. This paper first outlines the alliances’ common objectives and governance models. It then highlights the pivotal role of a federated IT infrastructure—providing identity management or interoperable learning systems—and explains why ongoing technical decisions are necessary to meet evolving regulations and the need for scaling and interoperability, as described, for example, in the Higher Education Interoperability Framework (HEIF). Using the Technical Commission (TC) of Unite! as a case study, the article maps its mandate, composition, and end‑to‑end workflow. The final sections reflect on lessons learned, noting success factors and future directions (e.g. the implementation of the TC within the core organisation of the alliance) to sustain transnational collaboration.

[editorial] European University Alliances in Action #zfhe

I am very happy to announce that the newest issue of the „Journal for Higher Education Development (ZFHE)“ has been published. Together with my colleagues Channa and Elena, we did an issue about „European University Alliances in Action„

Through the European Universities Initiative (EUI), the European Commission has, since 2019, been pursuing the goal of establishing transnational higher education alliances as the universities of the future. These alliances are intended to structurally deepen cooperation between European higher education institutions in education, research and innovation, facilitate the mobility of students and staff, and develop joint, student-centred curricula and research strategies. At the same time, the initiative aims to strengthen European values and enhance the continent’s competitiveness – thereby making a key contribution to the integration of the European Higher Education Area.
