Description of the methods/ approach and/or theories used European countries have been particularly hard hit by the COVID-19 pandemic and are currently at the beginning of a second wave. Most universities have had to close their doors and face many challenges. With their closure and the confinement of the population, they had to switch their teaching to digital technology. Despite their lack of preparation and the absence of adequate tools and expertise in digital pedagogy, they have been able to adapt remarkably well. Therefore, it is crucial to develop and use innovative and free educational resources to promote high quality, inclusive digital education, focusing on the implementation of hybrid, innovative, distance and online learning to address the problems of higher education institutions highlighted during the epidemic crisis. 8. Purpose/Aim The consortium´s aim is to develop the digital competences of teachers and educators. Firstly, the work aims to identify, at European level, the pedagogical approaches implemented between March 2020 and today, and to analyse them through benchmarking and surveys in several European universities. Strong changes brought about by a rapid and massivemigration from face-to-face to digital pedagogy are forcing teachers to review their student assessment system and the quality of their own teaching. Thus, it is also intended to promote the implementation of strategies and a culture of quality, in order to foster excellence in teaching. 9.
