European Commission unveils plans for digital education

BRUSSELS, Sept. 30 (Xinhua) -- The European Commission Wednesday adopted a new Digital Education Action Plan, which proposes a set of initiatives for high quality, inclusive and accessible digital education in Europe.

"The key lesson of the COVID-19 crisis is that digital education should no longer be viewed as an island of its own but considered an integral part of all education and training," Margrethe Vestager, the Commission's executive vice president responsible for A Europe Fit for the Digital Age, quoted a teacher as saying at a press conference in Brussels.
