== About OLPC The Netherlands ==
OLPC The Netherlands (OLPC-NL) is a grassroots group interested in contributing to the OLPC project. We are just starting up and are looking for more like minded people.<br>

==== People ====
If you are interested in being part of OLPC-NL too, please add yourself to the [[OLPC Netherlands/OLPC-NL people|list of people]].

==== Contributing to the OLPC project ====
'''[[OLPC-NL workgroups|Workgroups]]''': If you want to contribute to the OLPC project, but don't know where to start, have a look at our [[OLPC-NL workgroups|workgroups]]. These groups are working on gathering and sharing information (internationally and nationally), creating strategies and quality standards, initiating new and supporting existing projects. We are looking for individuals, organizations and companies that are interested in contributing by working voluntarily and embrace the idea of openly sharing knowledge.

Currently we have 4 workgroups, that are yet to be organized within themselves by people who actively want to participate and share their expertise. These wikipages are also intended to give a good orientation for newcomers and possible partners. (''Work in progress. [[User:Bine|Bine]] 05:06, 22 February 2008 (EST)''):

# [http://www.rug.nl/staff/N.Hansen/research University of Groningen], [[Netherlands]], Department of Social and Organizational Psychology, Nina Hansen: (Dutch) research on the influence of social identity on emotions and behavior within and between groups.

Dr Nina Hansen and Prof. Tom Postmes from the University of Groningen are currently involved in research that systematically and longitudinally tracks individual children to study the educational, psychological, social and cultural impact of OLPC in their life.

One goal of OLPC is to improve the educational outcomes of students, so called primary (i.e., educational) consequences of ICTs. These educational outcomes are being assessed in this project. However, this research also examines secondary consequences: changes over time in self-concept (such as goals and expectations), social networks (also referred to as social capital), cultural values, beliefs and practices, as well as changes in social equality (e.g., with respect to gender). These ‘unintended’ changes in psychology, social networks, communities, and culture may occur when laptops open new communication opportunities.

Organisation

We are grassroots[1], thus no big organization. We are currently a group of people, interested in the OLPC project, trying to find like-minded people with diverse expertises (software development, pedagogics, international relations, etc.) and backgrounds, to interconnect and accomplish projects together. Everybody who wants to contribute with his or her input of ideas and workpower, is welcome. We neither operate memberships nor a budget as an organization.
