NATO DEEP Armenia – ADL capacity building process update

A series of ADL events for Armenia were held in May and June. The NATO DEEP eAcademy experts participated in two visits in-person to Yerevan and in an online workshop. The topics of the events included online classroom methodology, creation of multimedia materials, use of e-learning platforms and videoconferencing systems. An important element of the workshop in Yerevan were the issues of using AI tools to create multimedia materials and the discussion on cyber security issues. During the visit to Yerevan the following Armenian HMES institutions were visited: National Defense Research University and the Military Medical Faculty at the Yerevan State Medical University after Mkhitar Heratsi. The workshop was held at the Vazgen Sargsyan Military University of the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Armenia. The online workshop held in May was aimed at familiarizing participants with the methodology of online classes and preparing them to implement independent classes using videoconferencing systems. 

During the June visit, involving also the ADL experts from the “Carol I” National Defence University of Romania, the development of the CAMEL T&T project was discussed, as the demand-driven initiative, linking sophisticated ICT tools with the process of English language teaching. The goal is to more involve and engage learners and to familiarize them with the language testing environment, inspired by STANAG 6001. To provide the highest quality of the solution, also English language teachers and testers from Armenian National Defense Research University and Military Academy named after V. Sargsyan are involved. More at https://cameltt.com/
