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.

Further details and the call for contributions can be found at http://elnts.coventry.domains

Best wishes
