EARNiA 7th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE,
CAMEROON 2021
INTRODUCTION
One of the 21st century skills is in the area of using Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in all facets of human endeavours including teaching and learning. It is important to note that the use of ICT is not limited to teaching and learning but is very useful in educational assessment and research. Some proportion of people in the business of educational assessment and research do have all the requisite knowledge in the use of ICT for other purpose but educational assessment and research. In order to bridge these gaps, EARNiA announces her 7th International Conference on the Role of Technology educational assessment and research in Africa which shall hold in the Republic of Cameroon between 5 and 10 September, 2021 at the University of Yaoundé 1, Yaoundé, Cameroon. Participants are requested to send their abstracts of not more than 200 words to earnia13@gmai.com on or before 1 August, 2021.
