When looking to the future, we envision universities without walls; these are universities that are open and engaged in society while retaining their core values. All of Europe’s universities will be responsible, autonomous and free, with different institutional profiles, but united in their missions of learning and teaching, research, innovation and culture in service to society. In this decade, universities will build on their capacity to evolve and will become engines of societal change. They will provide an open, transformative space for common knowledge production through research, education, innovation and culture. Together with other societal stakeholders, they will shape the future of a knowledge-driven society. Universities are communities of learners, academics and professional staff with open boundaries, including alumni and a wide range of partners and citizens. They will continue to be characterized by being cooperative and networked institutions locally, nationally and internationally. As such, they continue to build bridges between countries, cultures and sectors. On the one hand, universities are places of respite and refuge to test new ideas, for lateral thinking and for creating new knowledge that still lies outside of mainstream awareness. On the other hand, knowledge production can benefit from a dialogue with society, actively involving citizens and non-academic partners such as business, non-governmental organizations, public authorities and others that share objectives with the university. Both areas will remain fundamental for the universities’ service to society.

COVID-19 has been extraordinarily challenging for universities and students, and the disruption will likely persist beyond the rollout of a vaccine. The demands on academic staff and students have been – and continue to be – unparalleled. Both must manage work-life balance while teaching and learning in a largely unfamiliar way, in the midst of persistent uncertainty.

"Almost all educational facilities worldwide use networking to share, receive, and store important data and information. However, the schools’ admin workers must take necessary precautions to prevent cyberattacks, such as hacking of personal information and financial records, on their networks. A blockchain is one way in which universities can streamline student services. This article will discuss exactly what a blockchain is and how it can be used to perform this task."

The next-generation campus looks decidedly different from universities and colleges of the past and in many cases, the present. Using technologies that enable frictionless, touchless, and intuitive experiences—driven by a digitally connected community—these smart campuses seize true transformation to provide the level of service their digitally native student body and faculty have come to expect.
To stay competitive, institutions of higher learning must keep pace. Imagine if...answers to a late-night math question were addressed courtesy of a friendly chatbot... Entrance admissions applications were processed in hours, not weeks... Parking systems alerted motorists to nearest open spaces... Connected blackboards allowed professors to quickly share grading assignments with teaching assistants (TAs)... Courses were shared seamlessly from classrooms across the country. These are just a few advancements enabled by a smart campus.

University teaching is a complex task. When we first start to teach, nothing is automatic. Everything has to be carefully thought through. This MOOC introduces new teachers to key learning and teaching concepts and strategies in easily studied, two hour modules - just in time, just for you. Modules cover topics like strategies to teach that first class, giving feedback, facilitating group work, and online teaching. Happy teaching.
