The new information and communication technologies ( ICT) change the ways our society creates, stores, manages and disseminates information. The radical shift from the industrial to the information or knowledge society affects all fields of life. As an integral part of our society, the education system is facing new challenges. The relation between education and ICT plays a central role in the knowledge society. EENet has been working as an informal network of expertise in the field of ICT and education in Europe for about six years. Within this framework the association has the following objectives with regard to ICT in European school education: to identify, reflect and distil important research findings, to communicate and disseminate gained knowledge by different means of communication (Internet, seminars, presentations, publications etc), to network and moderate knowledge creation processes between public and private stakeholders, to support monitoring, evaluation and reflection processes on different levels.
