“We are all now connected with Internet, like neurons in a giant brain.”– Stephen Hawking

World Wide Web is giving people new expectations. It's allowing them to become their own expert as Knowledge lies anxious at their fingertips hence there is a paradigm shift in the role of the teacher from a sage on the stage, to a guide by the side. the new age teacher has to be digitally fluent and also an expert in integrating and effectively using the tools of digital age such as internet, mobiles, facebook, twitter, blogs to create a comprehensive learner centric environment.

It is a continuous endeavour of MET CET to keep abreast with the latest in the world of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in education through research and share it with various stakeholders. MET CET also supports faculty in standardising content and integrate teaching learning strategies suitable for the subject so as to involve learners with different learning styles and cognitive abilities. Helping in creating individual learning environment for each learner through cooperative and collaborative learning is encouraged in the campus right from KG to PG. The centre is also actively involved in teacher, faculty, and staff training in various tools of technology to keep them abreast with the latest in the world of education.

Integration of Technology for Education and Technology in Education is the need of the hour and Centre of Educational Technology is striving towards the same.
