Thank you for attending ‘Digital Co-Creation with Nursing Students: Enhancing Digital Competencies (DigiCONS)’ on 25th of June.  We were delighted to meet you many of you online as part of our International Showcase & Academic Networking Event.

The event brought together nursing academics, digital health educators and international collaborators to explore the impact, relevance and global potential of the ongoing DigiCONS project.  We had 153 registered participants from 13 countries.

Network

During the event, we also made a call to join a new network we are forming, starting from September. It aims to bring educators, researchers and practitioners to collaborate on a shared mission: to understand and bridge digital competency divides among nursing students and to co-create inclusive, equitable and AI‑informed learning environments.

What the Network Will Do

  • Develop joint research proposals and collaborative projects
  • Support the socio-cultural adaptation, implementation and evaluation of the Digital Competences Toolkit (DCT)
  • Participate in international survey collaborations using the Digital Competence Survey (DCS)
  • Advance digital literacy initiatives across nursing programmes.

Network Structure

  • Two showcase meetings per year to share progress, innovations and findings
  • Optional quarterly research-focused sessions for deeper collaboration.

Please use the following link to join the network: https://app.onlinesurveys.jisc.ac.uk/s/robertgordonuniversity/digicons-global-network-expression-of-interest

Thank you to all of you who have already expressed interest! We will get in touch with you in September with more information on the next steps.

That’s all from us for now. It was lovely to meet you all online, and we look forward to organising additional events in the near future. Enjoy the rest of the summer!
