„Implementation of Digital Transformation in Education from the Perspective of NCDTV is the first study within the National Project on Digital Transformation of Education and Schools. It provides a comprehensive view of the changes that education faces in the era of the digital revolution, combining the perspective of education stakeholders – students, teachers, school leadership, and school digital coordinators – with the analysis of key topics such as artificial intelligence, learning environments, cyber and information security, digital well-being, and prevention. The study emphasizes that successful digital transformation requires a comprehensive approach to school functioning, systematic strengthening of the sense of urgency for change, and synergistic communication among all stakeholders. Equally important is the support of educational staff at all levels, especially digital coordinators, school leadership, and teachers. Regular collection of high-quality data on the current state of schools and the system as a whole, as well as targeted support for talents in mathematics and computer science, are also essential. The study thus provides a framework for digital transformation in education that is strategically managed, pedagogically grounded, and oriented toward the needs of all stakeholders.
