My name is Jakob Neergaard Hausted. I study educational anthropology at the Danish University of Denmark, Aarhus. I have a background as a teacher in elementary schools. My subjects are: Danish, history, music and athletics.
I am planning to do an anthropological fieldwork from September to November 2008 at one of the schools where the XO is being launched - hopefully in Birmingham Alabama. Some of my objectives in this fieldwork are to see how the XO influences the people’s daily life – students, teachers and parents as well. How does the XO affect the relations and interactions between the different actors? How do they use the laptop, and what meaning does it produce to them? Which learning strategies do the pupils make use of, and is it possible to say something about the children’s educational strategies? How does the XO affect the teacher’s authority and his educational strategies? This is just some of my thoughts and new questions will most likely appear in the OLPC project depending on the given context.
