European Values must be upheld in the creation of digital education solutions: inclusion, multiculturalism and multilingualism, privacy, individualism, accessibility, and high quality.
Education solutions should build on evidence-informed, pedagogy-driven approaches and, where applicable, demonstrate tangible learning outcomes.
Digital and analog solutions should not be seen as mutually exclusive or as substitutes. Each has their own merits and should be evaluated according to their benefits, needs and capabilities. Financing mechanisms should allow for hybrid products and the choice of the best product for the individual learning and teaching situation to ensure pedagogical quality and innovation.
Edtech providers must provide transparency regarding fundamental structures, processes, data usage and data flows within their systems.
Edtech solutions must ensure adequate protection of digital educational content against copyright violations and piracy.
