That’s the motion at the heart of our first-ever Oxford-style debate – and we want you to weigh in.
📅 Wednesday, 29 April | 11:00-12:00 CET
🎤 Hosted on the European Digital Education Hub
Two expert debaters will go head-to-head:
🟢 Jan Beseda (Czech National Centre for Distance Education) – arguing in favour
🔴 Declan Qualter (University College Dublin) – arguing against
The motion:
“This House believes that educators who do not regularly update their digital skills should not be allowed to continue teaching.”
It’s a question that cuts to the heart of professional development, teacher autonomy, and the future of digital education. Should upskilling be a requirement – or does mandating it go too far?
Come ready to listen, challenge, and vote.
