Status
Currently no formal initiative has been taken in Bulgaria. Unofficial work started in the beginning of 2008. Current goals include a pilot in 2008 (with external financing) and a wider project in 2009 (with government and OLPC support).
Rationales to concentrate effort on Bulgarian education include
- Unsatisfactory results from PISA (www.pisa.oecd.org)
- Lack of fruitful use if ICT in Bulgarian primary education
- Wide variance in performance by children of different ethnic, social or economic status.
Translations
- Translation status in Pootle: https://dev.laptop.org/translate/bg/
