Swissdidac 2025: digital learning, inclusive classrooms, and what schools need now
03 December, 2025
SwissDidac 2025 in Bern once again demonstrated how deeply digital learning tools are embedded in modern Swiss education. The fair brought together hundreds of educators, school leaders, researchers and EdTech innovators and offered a space for open discussions about real classroom challenges and forward-looking solutions.
Great interest in evidence-based digital learning tools
Die SwissDidac 2025 in Bern zeigte erneut, wie digitale Lernwerkzeuge im schulischen Alltag in der Schweiz verankert sind. Die Messe brachte zahlreiche Lehrpersonen, Schulleitungen, Forschende und EdTech-Expertinnen und -Experten zusammen und bot Raum für offene Gespräche über aktuelle Herausforderungen und zukunftsorientierte Lösungen.
Student voices at our booth
A particularly wonderful moment was the visit from a group of students who had used Calcularis themselves in primary school. They spoke about how the program supported their daily learning, demonstrated their progress, and explained the unique advantages of Calcularis to interested visitors. Their enthusiasm impressively showed how consistently used digital learning tools represent a valuable complement to analog learning.
Workshop "Grafari Basics"
Our workshop, "Grafari & Writing Lab – understanding spelling with AI and creative writing," exceeded our expectations. Planned for 25 participants, 30 teachers ultimately attended, eager to learn more about class-wide work, differentiation, and structured support for learning to write. The high level of interest clearly showed that schools are looking for practical methods to lighten their load amidst increasing heterogeneity in the classroom.
Heterogeneous classrooms remain a top concern
A recurring theme in conversations was the growing diversity of learning profiles in today’s classrooms. Many teachers work with students who have dyslexia, dyscalculia, language-related challenges or general difficulties with automatisation. These challenges influence not only academic development but also students’ emotional wellbeing, a topic that came up frequently throughout the event.
Strengthening collaboration across countries
SwissDidac also created a valuable opportunity for internal collaboration. Team members from Serbia, Germany and Switzerland worked together on site, exchanging insights and aligning experiences from different school systems. On Friday, we were pleased to welcome Professor Michael von Aster, whose conversations with teachers and partners added depth to discussions about cognitive development and learning research.
Educators visited from across Switzerland
Many visitors mentioned that they had travelled long distances after receiving our email invitation. This strong response shows the high level of interest in classroom-ready, scientifically grounded learning tools and highlights the relevance of these topics for schools across the country.
