What is SELFIE?

If you landed on this page you probably already know it.

Yet, let us briefly recall what it is about: SELFIE is a free, multilingual online tool designed to guide primary, secondary general and vocational schools in a self-reflection process on their progress towards comprehensive integration and effective deployment of digital technologies into teaching, learning and student assessment.

For each school using SELFIE, it gathers – anonymously – the views of students, teachers and school leaders on how technology is used in their school, highlighting what is working well, where improvement is needed and what the priorities should be. For VET schools offering work-based learning, SELFIE gather the views of in-companytrainers.

SELFIE has been launched in October 2018 to boost digital skills and competence in the European Union and partner countries. In April 2021 it reached over 1 million users in over 75 countries!

What does ETF do in relation to SELFIE?

As part of the project Create New Learning, ETF supports the development and the system-wide implementation of SELFIE in partner countries. On this, ETF works in close collaboration with the European Commission and in particular with its Joint Research Centre.
