Sharing content and learning materials through OLPC
The One Laptop per Child project (OLPC) is gathering quality educational content for distribution around the world to the children who will be using the OLPC laptop computers.
To discuss the possibility of offering your content to the One Laptop per Child project, or to find out more about running a laptop exercise in your classroom, please write to iste@laptop.org.
If you have suggestions for educational content that you think somebody should develop, then please add them to the Educational content ideas page. The list below is only for content which already exists and whose owners have donated it to the OLPC project.
- The Logos multilingual dictionary is a GFDL dictionary in 200+ languages. Its content is available for use on the laptops.
- The Indic Family of Languages project
- I am thrilled by this project. I make available my multi-lingual comparative dictionary for over 25 ancient languages with hundreds of thousands of words for use on the laptop :
- I also offer this to google for use since google supports the one laptop per child project. Congratulations, Nicholas Negroponte and his team for initiating this project. Best wishes for a successful launch.

- GCompris educational sotware package :
- I am the author of the education software GCompris (for children from 2 to 10). In fact, many activities are useful for first users whatever their age. Of course, GCompris is free software released under the GPL. It is developed and maintained by a small community. I would like to know if GCompris makes sense for the OLPC project. If so, I will make the effort to adapt it in order to suit the OLPC platform.
- I wish the best to your project. Regards, Bruno Coudoin
