Welcome

One Laptop per Child is an education project, not a laptop project. Our goal is to provide children with access to libraries of knowledge, ideas, experiments, and art. Our hope is that this material will act as a window into the world, complete with examples and references on which to build.

This page is designed for the community of educators who are interested in contributing to these libraries of knowledge, and supporting the community of teachers using XOs in their classrooms. If you are a teacher currently using (or about to use) XOs in your classroom, you may be interested in the community page for XO Teachers.

Already, hundreds of laptops have been distributed to children in pilot schools around the world. This summer, the final "B4" beta-test laptop will go out to another thousand children. The first official production run is estimated to be in the millions, and numbers will increase from there.

It's an exciting time to get involved with OLPC. This page is designed to help you get started.

"Pupils go even beyond what I can teach in the class. It's a very interesting thing to use. I personally have a better idea about teaching... We discovered that giving them time to discover something and to do it in their own way, they feel more happy and they are so excited in using it that, 'Yes, I discovered it! Yes, I can get it!! Yes, I can do this on my own!!!' Teaching is getting more interesting and less stressful." — Mr. O., Galadima School, Abuja, Nigeria

A note of context: TRIAL-2 is just now getting started, so most of these links (currently all) are from TRIAL-1. Which mostly used very limited (pre-alpha) software, on mainly early, more limited hardware prototypes. So the answer to why they aren't making greater use of their Journals, and online collaborative capabilities, is they mostly didn't have them yet.

Vision

The XO laptop will bring a world of new ideas, images, and materials to children around the world. It will also provide students and teachers with new ways to collaborate, create, and transform works over time. Our belief in collaboration as a fundamental part of learning underscores our commitment to editable document formats, revision tracking, and careful attribution of authors and sources.

All of our projects are collaborative, and this wiki is where each of our projects takes shape. If you take a look around, you'll find projects in all stages of completion-- from rough outlines and meeting notes to detailed workplans and polished documents. Feel free to contribute your ideas and expertise to any project that interests you. We're counting on you to make OLPC a success.

To learn more about our model for content creation, our network of curators, and our plan for school servers that will host (and share) each school's digital library, visit Content. Otherwise, keep reading to find out how you can join in.

What are some interesting things to do first?

  • Read about the OLPC Learning Vision to learn more about why we think children in developing countries need laptops and what we think laptops will enable them to do.
  • Visit the OLPC Education Portal.
  • Read an overview of our current pilot programs, visit the OLPC Ceibal blog, or read field notes from Nigeria and Thailand.
  • Familiarize yourself with our ideas about content and collaboration, and the various Creative Commons licenses. As a rule, we want educational materials produced for and connected with OLPC to be free and open source.
  • Contribute ideas (you can learn about contributing to a wiki ...where??).

And then what?

Play, learn, explore, exchange-- you can do anything you want! Here are some ideas to help you get started.

Eventually, the following sub-categories should each have their own page... --Lauren 18:51, 6 July 2007 (EDT)
