EDUCATION SYSTEM DISCIPLINE TECHNOLOGY PROGRESS
"One laptop per child" is a concept. It is an education project, not a laptop project. It can be implemented in more than one way, by no means limited to the embodiment of the OLPC non-profit association's so-called "$100 Laptop." The argument for olpc is simple: many children-especially those in rural parts of developing countries-have so little access to school-in some cases just a tree-that building schools and training teachers is only one way-perhaps the slowest way-to alleviate the situation. While such building programs and teacher education must not stop, another and parallel method advised by OLPC is to leverage the children themselves by engaging them more directly in their own learning. It may sound implausible to equip the poorest children with connected laptops when rich children may not have them, but it is not. Laptops can be affordable and children are more capable than they are given credit for.
