OLPC Santa Barbara
Who We Are
Founded in 2008, OLPCsb is an organization at the University of California, Santa Barbara that is a collaboration of interdisciplinary students, faculty, staff, and external partners.
Mission
One Laptop per Child, Santa Barbara works to utilize the benefits of technology in the education of children on a local and international scale. Our efforts include creating educational software for kids, researching the effects of collaborative technology in the classroom, and connecting children from around the world to interact on a meaningful level. In partnering with other schools, universities, organizations and individuals, we also aim to create synergy with others who are working towards the same goals. And as we move forward, we work to create documentation of how such endeavors can be accomplished, so that others may work towards this brighter future alongside with us.
