Identifying Educational Technology Stakeholders & Public Interest Groups

The NLI NETP workgroup participated in a brain storming session to develop a list of stakeholders that should be solicited for input on the NETP. The following list is organized into categories with examples of organizations that might be contacted in the process of developing the NETP. This list is by no means intended to be all inclusive. It is only a beginning effort to identify those stakeholders that are essential for the development of a National Educational Technology Plan.
