Resum
The goal of this deliverable was to organize meetings/events with other alliances for sharing good practices in relation to digitalization, with the goal of increasing interoperability and aligning our approach. CHARM has devoted a large amount of time and energy to this goal, with more than 2 activities on average per month. The WP-leadership conducted many of these activities, but involving the responsible task teams wherever possible and sharing the results.
This work has been done on four different levels.
On the European level, CHARM has contributed intensively to initiatives such as the FOREU subgroup on IT, the European Digital Education Hub and specifically its project to develop an Interoperability Framework. We also contributed to related activities and networks such as Erasmus Without Paper and the annual conference of the European Association of International Education (EAIE). In terms of impact, this included a lot of knowledge exchange, but also concrete joint development work, especially on the framework for interoperability.
On an inter-alliance level, we have exchanged knowledge bilaterally with a number of specific alliances to whom we have close contacts. Specifically, the contribution of the Interoperability study commissioned by the German Hochschulforum Digitalisierung deserves mentioning. This has provided important groundwork for what later became the project for the interoperability framework.
On a national level, we most notably contributed to the discourse in the Netherlands, through a variety of events, seminars, workshops and publications to which we contributed. Our contribution was of significant help to make visible the needs of the European University Alliances and put these on the agenda of SURF, the national-level organisation that supports Higher Education Institutions with their IT. Also in Hungary and in Germany, we have contributed to the national-level knowledge exchange.
On a local level, the initiative of our colleagues at Johannes-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg deserves specific attention. They have organized a series of internal events to support the knowledge exchange.
Considering the lessons learned from all these activities, we would like to mention three: 1. The challenges of the European University Alliances with regard to digitalisation are all similar – so the solutions could be, too! 2. Interoperability of our systems is the key for a successful and efficient IT-setup. 3. Main IT-priorities are identity management, joint course catalogues and digital credentials.
Looking at the picture in its entirety and the impact of our work, we can conclude that the collaboration across alliances and across national borders is crucial for the success not only of our own alliance, but just as well for the success of the European University initiative as a whole.
