LISBON — The Armenian Communities Department of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation is happy to announce the launch of the Zndoog.com website, the first of its kind Western Armenian Educational Resource Centre.
Zndoog.com is a dynamic new website for educators, parents and other individuals who need modern pedagogical resources in the Western Armenian language. It brings together in one online location various tools, teaching materials, publications (including textbooks), audio-visual items, cartoons, music and even games that are essential for language acquisition by various age groups. Many of the items are specifically developed for Zndoog, such as lesson plans for teachers and helpful pedagogic videos. The entries are easily accessible and can be searched by age group, genre, title and author. All items are in Western Armenian.
Currently, Zndoog contains over 170 resources. It will continue to expand by adding new materials on a regular basis. People can submit materials to be featured on Zndoog.com following established guidelines and Zndoog’s overall student-centred contemporary pedagogic approach.
