NEFELE will support the purposeful use of digital technologies in HE and the development of expertise in the use of digital tools for teachers, including technologies that allow the creation and innovative use of digital education content, i.e., TUIs. Further, NEFELE will support the use of the EU frameworks on digital competences of educators. In this view, technologies will be used to enhance and innovate education and training.

NEFELE aims to stimulate innovative learning and teaching practices to tackle societal challenges through support for the development, testing and implementation of flexible learning pathways and modular course design, i.e., MOOC. The HE is called to take advantage of technologies and to develop actions to play an active role in the digital transformation process. In this perspective, NEFELE proposes the MOOC considered a good opportunity for digital learning. MOOC is a tool that guarantees open pedagogies in education: it transcends the limits imposed by social distances, overcomes time barriers, and provides free access to anyone in the world. Moreover, MOOCs is a distance learning tool that allows the sustainability of HE courses also during/after COVID-19 outbreaks.
