‘The future of education is blended and student-centred’, stated the Chairperson of the European Students’ Union, Mr. Fernando Miguel Galán Palomares. While the EU’s celebrated student mobility programme Erasmus+ strikes new records, e-learning, as another form of exchange between universities, is not yet recognised as a legitimate part of formal education in the EU. How could the EU use the full potential of digital learning in its higher education institutions and foster their co-operation in order to enhance the internationalisation of education as well as maintain the Union’s competitiveness in the field of research and its position as the largest knowledge economy?
