ITK2026 Theme Has Been Chosen — and the Call for Papers will be open soon!

This theme invites us to reflect: “I think, therefore I learn.” Thinking lies at the heart of digital pedagogy—without thinking, there is no learning. We cannot outsource thinking if we intend to innovate and succeed. Thinking demands courage: to question, to challenge, and to seek new paths. ITK2026 calls us to move from ideas to action—together and with courage.

Now is the prime time for exhibitors to plan their impact at ITK2026. Consider how you wish to present your contributions for maximum visibility, and beyond your exhibition stand, consider contributing to the ITK program—a route proven to bring strong exposure and valuable customer contacts. During autumn, proposals will go through a blind peer-review process, and by January, the ITK2026 program will take shape with over 200 high-quality presentations, directed at experts and decision-makers in the halls of Tampere Hall ITK-Konferenssi.
Proposals receive the strongest evaluation when they are presented from the perspective of an educational institution or other educational organization, highlighting what your organization has done, with what results, how you’ve supported with expertise, and how your talk ties into the ITK2026 theme. In contrast, purely marketing-driven presentations from companies do not score points.

Next Steps:
• Headwear on—get your thinking caps on!
• The Call for Papers opens on September 23, 2025, and is only open for a little over a month—until October 31 Call for Papers - ITK-konferenssi.

We look forward to your inspired submissions and to seeing your ideas shine at ITK2026!
