Yerevan - May 23, 2007 - Within the framework of the Armenia School
Connectivity Program, Project Harmony is pleased to announce the
final event devoted to an official transfer of the Armenia School
Connectivity Program from the U.S. Government to the Republic of
Armenia Government.
Over the past two years, Project Harmony has worked closely with the
Government of Armenia to facilitate the transfer of the Armenia School
Connectivity Program (ASCP) from Project Harmony to the Ministry
of Education and Science. As a result of the transfer process,
the Ministry of Education and Science, which for the past two years
has acted as a financial co-sponsor of the ASCP, will adopt the ASCP
infrastructure, systems and strategies employed to deliver ICT-enhanced
educational activities. The Ministry has identified the National Center
for Educational Technologies (NCET) as its authorized representative to
assume the role of the main implementing agency after the completion
of the transfer on July 1, 2007. For more information about NCET,
please visit www.ktak.am
Project Harmony will continue to manage and implement the ASCP until
the completion of the transfer on June 30, 2007. In this capacity,
Project Harmony will continue cooperation with ASCP partner schools,
promote the use of ICT in educational processes, support partnerships
between U.S. and Armenian schools and communities, and strengthen
schools' capacity to maintain the resources and operations of their
Internet Computer Centers.
The above mentioned event took place on May 23, 2007, at the Yerevan
Armenia Marriott Hotel, during which the winners of the Online
Scrapbook project were announced and fifteen teachers involved in
partnership projects with schools in the U.S. were recognized for
their distinguished work.
The Online Scrapbook is a competition outlining the efficiency,
impact and successes of the Armenia School Connectivity Program
during its six years. The project aims to collect the best works
of all 330 schools of the ASCP network in the field of information,
communication, religion, culture, education and civics. The materials
reflect the role and meaning of ASCP in the lives of schools, teachers,
students, and communities.
