Data literacy in digital education
Data literacy is the critical ability to understand, evaluate, create, and communicate data as information. It focuses on the competences needed for effective data use.
The Erasmus+ programme is running a call for policy experimentation projects which address how inclusive and high-quality digital education contributes to learners’ data literacy.
This is part of the Digital Education priority, whose total funding amounts to € 15 000 000.
Translating best practices into projects
This priority emphasizes the need to equip students with the skills to navigate, understand, and critically analyse data.
Proposals should contribute to shaping an education system that prepares the future workforce for the challenges and opportunities presented by data-driven environments.
Who can apply
The applicants (beneficiaries and affiliated entities) must be legal entities (public or private bodies) active in the fields of education and training, research and innovation, or employers.

Implications for policy
Data plays a crucial role in education as it:
- provides valuable insights into student learning
- helps educators make informed decisions
- drives continuous improvement in teaching and learning
Data is important in several key functions: assessment, personalisation, evaluation, decision-making and research.
Activities that can be funded
The main activities under this priority could involve
- researching, transnational mapping, and policy analysis to enhance understanding and bridge the gap between policy and practice
- developing and delivering capacity-building activities (training, mentoring programmes, etc.)
- designing and piloting frameworks, guidelines, methods, and activities related to innovative solutions
- proposing evidence-based recommendations which could address different interested organisations and levels
- analysing how project results could be transferred and sustained
- dissemination and networking events to showcase the project work and encourage collaboration
