Eritrea
Science Project (Netafrica) (http://www.msnucleus.org/international/index.html)
"
Over the last 20 years over 300 scientists, mathematicians, engineers,
and educators have been involved with the development and implementation of
our science curriculum (Integrating Science, Math, and Technology) in the United
States. With today's technology we feel we can assist countries who require
a
low cost, hands-on science curriculum. To test our hypothesis we intend to
conduct a pilot program in Eritrea, Africa. ... The Math/Science Nucleus has
been experimenting
with Electronic Textbooks for over 10 years. We have concluded that pen computing
is a technology that can assist both teachers in their instruction of content
and for children to refine their fine motor skills (writing). In the last 3
years, the advent of browser software has given us an opportunity to transfer
our materials
to an easy-to-use format. Over the last year we have been transferring over
6000 pages of science curriculum (elementary-secondary) for all the world to
access."

youths and promoting Eritrean identity, tradition, culture and history. It has
over 120,000 members in Eritrea and many more members in its rapidly growing
chapters around the world. ... The main objective of the Greater Washington DC
chapter of the NUEYS (NUEYS-DC) is to provide a forum for young Eritreans to
share ideas, discuss issues, participate in community activities, and educate
themselves both about nation-building in Eritrea and empowerment in America.
The purpose of the organization is to uplift and consolidate scattered youth
initiatives into a coherent group movement."
