This page is completely messed. To teaching IT knowledge is only a very small part of Education. To teach programming is not main purpos of this laptop.
This should be seperated
- What kind of applications are important
- How to make the software
- Which programming languages should be used to teach programming (this should be moved to a seperat page)
Interactive Lerning Tools
What is important to teach
- Writing
- Mathematics
- Local geography
- Agricultural knowledge
- health (aids, hygienic)
How to teach
- education games
- knowledge tests
- lexicon
Usablity Checkpoints
How to make this programms
- Compiled programms (C++)
- Interpreted software (Python)
- Browserbased HTML + SVG with javascript (There is no flash player)
Ready to use software
Please give translating infos (software + documention)
Software in development
Language Training for Developers
All software must be translated to foreign languages and script. Most of the software developers don't know anything about languages with different writing systems. A lerning software, that helps to learn some chinese, tibetian, thai,... words including script, could bring the nessessary knowledge to the developers.
The aim of this isn't to enable software developers to translate the software, but to give them knowledge about fonts and text input methods.
MUSEs or MOOs
This was moved to discussion because intranets are not necessarily going to be available to OLPC users
A MUSE or MOO software to run on an intranet.

- This is a silly idea. Software for the OLPC needs to be primarily self-contained and should only expect intermittent ability to communicate. For instance, during the day at school the OLPCs can talk. But in the evening, they will have few opportunities except for close neighbours. In addition, the users can be expected to take breaks for recharging sessions.
