Ukraine considers the possibility of cooperation with Israel in the formation of the National Online Education Platform, Minister of Education and Science of Ukraine Lilia Hrynevych said during a meeting with Minister for Environmental Protection and for Jerusalem Affairs and Heritage of Israel Zeev Elkin.
“Ukraine considers the possibility of cooperation with Israel in creating a national education online platform, which will store educational materials for schoolchildren, teachers and parents,” the press service of the Education Ministry said on August 21.
According to Hrynevych, the electronic platform is required to fully support the education reform in order to provide teachers with online interactive materials that will help to use efficient teaching methods.
“Also, this platform should play an important role in increasing the access of children from rural areas to quality education,” Hrynevych said.
According to the minister, such a platform was developed in Israel a long time ago and now Ukraine is looking for opportunities to implement the project, within which Israel will help to transfer the ready solutions from its platform to the Ukrainian one.
The 2018 state budget will envisage around UAH 54 million for the purchase of equipment for the platform and its support.
