[ecrea] Call for Contributions: Assessing Literacy Skills in a Digital World

The next Training School (TS) of the COST-funded European Literacy 
Network (ELN) will have a focus on assessing literacy skills in a 
digital world. Registration is free and there are travel grants available.

- Deadline: 15th of July.
- Dates of the TS: 4th-6th of Sept 2017.
- Venue: Disruptive Media Learning Lab, Coventry University, UK.

The three-day TS will include a variety of presentations, round-table 
discussions, poster exhibitions and workshops aiming to both share 
expertise and envision new ways of understanding and capturing students’ 
digital fluency. Participants will have the opportunity to present their 
work and collaborate with peers.

The TS is aimed at researchers, educators, postdocs and PhD students 
based in EU countries, from any discipline or area of study, whose work 
is relevant to the topic. Applications from strong graduate students may 
be considered too.

Due to the highly interactive format of the event, only 20 applicants 
will be selected to participate. A number of grants (up to €600 each) to 
support travel and accommodation expenses are available.

Professor Julian McDougall (Bournemouth University, UK), Dr Maria José 
Brites (Lusophone University of Porto and University of Minho, Portugal) 
and Dr Igor Kanižaj (University of Zagreb, Croatia) are some of the 
experts who will participate as guest speakers.
