Given the overwhelming popularity of video gaming among young people, it is not surprising the rise of esports as a booming industry, with an estimated audience of 532.1 million worldwide. But esports is also a relatively new approach to teaching that utilises competitive video gaming as a tool for learning, promising to promote the development of 21st-century skills, such as teamwork, communication, problem-solving, critical thinking, and strategic planning.

European Schoolnet is looking for 12 secondary school teachers to form the Teach Europe Taskforce that will create pedagogical materials to teach about the European Union (EU) across the curriculum. As part of the Taskforce, teachers will be required to work together, attend training courses and events, and contribute to the development of a series of Learning Scenarios.

European Schoolnet is pleased to become a strategic partner of the ALL DIGITAL Weeks campaign and celebrate with the European Commission the European Year of Skills. The motto of the campaign is ‘'Enhance your digital skills'' which is a call to action for all European citizens to take an active part in a better future, to learn new skills, both basic and advanced, to face digital transformation with confidence.
