Mart Laanpere has been involved with integrating information and communication technologies (ICT) into education since 1989. He served as a consultant for Georgia's Deer Leap strategy from 2004-2008. The Deer Leap strategy aimed to provide computers and internet access to schools but faced challenges with infrastructure, teacher training, and developing digital resources. While progress was made in some areas like purchasing computers, goals were only partially accomplished in other areas such as internet connectivity, curriculum support, and teacher training.
