| Summary: | The National Center for Education
Technology (NaCET) has for nearly ten years served as the
primary support for education technology in Armenian
schools. NaCET manages the Armenian Schools Internet Network
(ASIN), plus school information management, content
development and dissemination, training in information
technology, and development and dissemination of education
content. NaCET was founded to meet urgent needs for
technical capacity and contract management with the Ministry
of Education and Science (MoES). In meeting these needs,
NaCET has overseen the extension of internet connectivity to
more than 99 percent of schools as of 2013. This milestone
is accompanied by new pressures - the need to begin the
process of upgrading hardware - and by a new opportunity for
broader assessment of the role of education technology in schools. |
