    has a plan in place, background for future work and 6 months experience with XOs
  

Extensive computer experience, particularly with Mac OS. I have been working with the XO computer since September 2008 and have become very familiar with the program and interface. I am also the lead on logistics for this project and as a result have become very familiar with the peripheral requirements for a successful launch. planning this project since September 2008 and have a firm logistical plan in place. contemplating a parallel pilot project in Canada to run simultaneously. have an established Teacher's Advisory Committee contributing to an education plan and have been in contact with ppl in Peru and Nepal.

our team are working on a pilot for two remote communities in Bolivia for the summer of 2009... bringing 100 laptops as a test-run with future plans [3k in 2010]. In February 2009, going to Bolivia to meet with the teachers in those communities and provide them with several laptops. We hope this will prepare the teacher's for the full deployment in the summer and get buy-in on the project.

 Amicitia Am. School of Fez 	mhasbrouck 	25 	10 	
    multilingual school proposal; needs detail.  How would results be shared?

Many of our team members and staff are experienced users of business software as well as substantially comfortable and familiar with educational software. We have a technician who works with the few computers we have at the school currently.

It would be a fantastic opportunity for our students to be able to demo these computers. Thank you for considering our school for your projects. We have a tri-lingual school that is in the traditional city of Fez, Morocco. The majority of the students are Moroccan, and the others are from other countries. We have 160 students with only 8 working computers in the school.

In this project, we would like to demo the computers by training our teachers to use them first for a period of two months. Then we would like to do a project with our multi-lingual 5th grade students in which we teach them to harvest information off the internet and us this information for a world cultures fair or other appropriate presentation. This would be an 8 month project and we would give extensive feedback.
