One laptop per child

September 25, 2007

 

The ‘One Laptop Per Child‘ scheme plans to give every child in the developing world a laptop, these laptops will cost in the region of $100 - $200 per unit.

Starting November 12, One Laptop Per Child will be offering a Give 1 Get 1 Program for a brief window of time. For $399, you will be purchasing two XO laptops—one that will be sent to empower a child to learn in a developing nation, and one that will be sent to your child at home.

The potential of this scheme is immense, I think we should encourage our schools to explore the potential of this scheme for their students, and at the same time supporting children all over the world.

Further details can be found on the wiki.
