==Plan of Action==	

[[Image:KerichoClassroom1.jpg|thumb|right|HOC Team Member at Work]]

:1.	Develop a curriculum and program that can be implemented using the features of the XO and by collecting browse able current material relevant to HIV/AIDS. 

:Schools in Kenya have recently introduced lessons in life skills, specifically for HIV/AIDS. The predicament is that there is a big shortage of teachers to utilize this time maximumly especially in the rural areas where our project will based. The schools are willing and welcoming to external support.	

:2.	Schools and groups in the rural areas will be given the first priority. We will start  with Bungoma and Busia Districts.  A similar programmme will be extended to the neighbouring schools, civic, fFaith-based groups and NGOs according to available time. 


:3.	The team has studied the objectives of the school curriculum and designed lessons for learners based on the objectives of the curriculum of HIV/AIDS.

:4.	We will visit people living with AIDS,orphans,widows to take pictures,videos and tape the stories on XO that will be watched and listened to during lessons.The nearby health centres and hospitals with AIDS patients will be appropriate for us to get information to be stored on XO for our lessons.
 
:5.	The objective is to concretise the information on HIV/AIDS by use of videos, pictures, diagrams some drawn by the learners themselves on the XO laptops..It is noted that most of the information delivered to students in schools is abstract and teacher- centered. XO technology will provide an interactive,concrete and learner-centered approach that is motivating to the learners.

:6.	The leader and participants will also organize for training of teachers in various schools on the use of XO laptops in order for them to support in teaching using XO technology.Some weekends can used for this training.

:7.	Actualization of the program using an XO allows users to express their feelings in a safe place, where they have tools to write and create and communicate with their peers.


=== '''School Curriculum''' ===

:*First few lessons of implementation in schools and centres  will be used to train and aid the learners on how to use and handle XO laptops.
:*They shall also be required to draw diagrams and paint using XO on materials related to AIDS.
:*Discussion and chatting using XO-Learners will take some time to exchange ideas at some distance on topics provided by specialists using interlink on XO.
:*Materials from wiki.The group will download information from wiki on internet on various topics as adviced by specialists in various organizations,stored on XO and then learners will use it in different sessions as guided by the participants in our group.
:*Faith-based group programmes-Youths,children and other groups’ programmes will be utilized to provide an interactive,concrete approach to HIV/AIDS education as opposed to abstract approaches provided by most groups.

''' Learning Activities''' <br>
:•        Using  the activity on the XO to write familiar information, question/ answer  on HIV/AIDs.

The pupils were put into smaller classes of 30,where 3 shared one laptop for the purposes of introduction to XO laptops.
These classes delayed due to funding.
Students were put in classes of 20 to make 4 classes with two students per laptop.All classes alternated according to the time table of the school.95% of the students had never handled a computer, this was there first time.
