One Laptop Per Child


MIT professor Nicholas Negroponte, has created the One Laptop Per Child program where children in developing countries such as Rwanda may each have access to a specially designed low-cost laptop.

It is still under consideration that our ICT 12 class may be able to pull together some money in order to take part in the "buy two, keep one" proposal. We will be able to donate a laptop to a child in a developing country as well as being able to keep one in the classroom to learn from such a fascinating unit of technology.

Personally, I support the proposal 100% and would be more than willing to contribute to such a beneficial program.

Until next time!
