What about education & learning?
I did not see clearly if the Digital agenda is considering to cover education and learning and where?
I mean not the formal education but the new innovative educational processes in the perspective of initial or life long learning, and that are taking benefit of the ICT.
I believe this is a domain that is relevant to several of the groups here such as:
1) Converged media platform. (e.g. mobile learning with tablets and smartphone, learning 2.0 with social learning, smart content; etc)
3) E-commerce: how the different actors are articulated. (cf. digital content, new business models of education, etc.)
4) Social media: is being progressively adopted in education if conjunction with mobile interaction. Note: The value of social media for the motivation, the engagement and contribution to inclusion of learners should increasingly be recognized.
5) Data: knowledge repository including meta information generated by the social interaction and collaborative annotation of content.
6) Cloud. Already a reality.
7) Security. Privacy of the learners.
8) Innovation & entrepreneurship: A "competence" & attitude that people need to participate in the "digital economy"
9) Jobs & skills: ensuring that education is aligned with the jobs and skills that are needed in the digital economy.
Any thoughts on this?

Learning aspects are
Learning aspects are currently adressed in pillar 6 of DAE (skills, literacy and inclusion), and the obvious first place to follow up on seems the group on jobs and skills. But, you're indeed right that education is relevant to all the groups.
I have found that if you have
I have found that if you have a fit for purpose connection you can find out anything you like. Yourself.
I have also found the best learning is peer to peer. There wasn't lessons to teach the kids how to use mobiles, yet I see many a professional person asking their children to show them how their smartphone works. I think the key to ICT education is a high speed, reliable, ubiquitous connection. Its all online. The key to a better standard of education especially in health related knowledge is sharing via a ubiquitous connection. Stories of medics in third world countries doing complicated surgery via webcams with instructions from consultants in other countries have happened already, schools sharing lessons, all this will be possible in the future if the connectivity is there. But first, we need the infrastructure in all our countries, not just in the few places it is now. The future is coming. It just isn't here yet. Telepresence will be awesome.
