Digital transformation is one of the priority objectives of the 2030 Agenda. The European Union is betting on this transformation in various contexts, among which the educational and health fields stand out. This transformation must be based on the digital literacy of professionals. This symposium will address the results found in different experiences implemented in these areas as a result of the development of two projects co-financed by the European Union and an R+D+i project financed by the MICINN. Specifically, it will analyze the: 1) effectiveness of the use of virtual laboratories and gamification techniques in the learning of university students of Health Sciences; 2) usability of chatbot technology applied to learning in university contexts; 3) use of eye tracking technology for the analysis of learning patterns; 4) application of virtual reality techniques in the learning of industrial heritage; 5) training of early care professionals in technology and artificial intelligence. The results of these studies indicate that: 1) virtual laboratories and gamification experiences increase students' motivation towards learning; 2) chatbot technology has potential, although it contemplates problems of inclusion in virtual learning platforms, 3) the use of eye tracking technology facilitates the differentiation of learning patterns; 4) virtual reality techniques are highly effective in learning; 5) e-EarlyCare-T project is achieving high acceptance in the European framework by applying these technologies and techniques.
