AI Literacy & Intellectual Property in Education – Online Training for Teachers

The European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) warmly invites you to join a 2-hours online training dedicated to helping teachers across Europe explore the new AI Literacy Framework and its connections with Intellectual Property (IP) in education.

The AI Literacy Framework is a joint initiative of the European Commission and the OECD, with the support of Code.org and leading international experts. It is designed for teachers, education leaders, policymakers, and learning designers, and aims to:

• Outline competences and learning scenarios for teaching about AI;
• Inform future learning materials, standards, and school-wide initiatives;
• Support the development of responsible AI policies for primary and secondary education settings.

Currently under review by international education stakeholders, the framework will be finalized in 2026.

This training, led by the EUIPO, will:

• Present the draft AI Literacy Framework in an accessible way for teachers;
• Highlight its relevance for intellectual property (IP) in education;
• Provide space for teachers to ask questions, share concerns, and exchange ideas about how AI is impacting classrooms today.

The public consultation for the Action Plan against Cyberbullying runs until 29 September 2025 and is available in all EU languages. You can access it on the Have Your Say portal. 

To help ensure the Plan meets children’s needs, protects their rights and reflects their lived experiences, we need to hear from children and young people themselves. This is why, the EU Children’s Participation Platform has recently launched an online survey (in all EU languages) for children and teens aged 12-17. It is available via the following link EU Survey on Cyberbullying 2025. Please spread the word! 

Please find the ESEP September newsletter here.

We have received the request of sharing this Open Call for Good Practices:

The European Commission has launched an Open Call for Good Practices on School/Culture Collaborations for Citizenship Education!

The European Commission is inviting you to share your good practice example of how schools can work with artists and cultural organisations to enhance pupils’ civic engagement, democratic attitudes and their readiness to engage in civic and democratic life through the power of participatory artistic and cultural experiences within and around schools.

If you have done important work of this kind, please tell us about it!

If you know other people who have done such work of high quality, please forward this request to them.

We are looking for inspirational examples of such work that was/is implemented:

• Within and around primary schools (upper years, age of pupils >10) and (especially) in secondary schools (ISCED 1-3), general or vocational.
• Within and around formal, non-formal and/or informal education environments.

 👉Share your good practice example in this form by 31 October 2025.

 👉Find out more about the Open Call for Good Practices here.

You can write in any of the EU-27 official languages. Please select your language under “Languages” section of the menu on the right-hand side of the screen.

Your contribution could make a difference! Good examples will inform and inspire policy and practice in the EU and world-wide.

A selection of good practice examples will feature in the Compendium of Best Practices that the European Commission will publish and disseminate widely.

This request is the first step in the European Union’s 2-year project that started in June 2025:

Culture and Democracy Study and Peer Learning

School/Culture Collaborations for Civic Engagement and Critical Citizenship Education - How schools, artists and cultural organisations can work together to enhance young people’s democratic attitudes and their readiness to engage in civic and democratic life.

The project will generate knowledge and concrete guidance for policy and practice on this topic.

It is an initiative of the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Education, Youth, Sport and Culture, implemented by its contractor Visionary Analytics in cooperation with KEA European Affairs following an open Call for Tenders.

"Our next webinar is called Data Literacy in a Digital Age and will take place on Wednesday 3 September, 15:00-16:00 CET. AI and constant data collection have transformed our view of data literacy. But are we keeping up? In this webinar, we will discuss how to build these key skills for students, teachers, parents, and pre-schoolers. Register for the webinar here. If you want to make your colleagues aware of the webinar, we invite you to share this LinkedIn post. 

Then we will have the webinar 21st Century Skills – Bridging the Gap Between Education and Reality, in which we will discuss: 

·                     Practical ways to add future-ready skills in classrooms. 

·                     Effective methods for matching education with tech changes. 

·                     Expert advice on building important skills for the digital age. 

It will take place on Wednesday 24 September, 09:00-10:00 CET. Register here. Same thing there: if you want to spread the word, here is a LinkedIn post for that. 

Finally, on the European Day of Languages, we will have another webinar, on the topic of digital language learning (sorry, no catchy title for this one). Digital language learning/teaching is interesting for several reasons: digital exchanges with native speakers is a hugely effective and cost-saving measure compared to travelling or meeting up with native speakers. On the other hand, it relies heavily on human communication, some aspects of which are difficult to transfer through a screen. In this webinar we will explore when digital tools, including AI tools, could and should be used to enhance language learning. The webinar will take place on Friday 26 of September, 12:00 – 13:00 CET. Register here."
