As someone who uses a computer everyday and has never attended a school without computers my education has been shaped by technology. Whether it is a projector not working or needing a fact that has slipped my mind, the presence of technology in my life is ever-present. I now understand this and realize that many other people around the world have the same potential to succeed, but lack the tools. My goal in the project is to set up the computers and infrastructure in Ecole 1 in order to give the tools to children that undoubtedly have the same potential as my classmates, but do not have the tools. |

As someone who uses a computer everyday and has never attended a school without computers my education has been shaped by technology. Whether it is a projector not working or needing a fact that has slipped my mind, the presence of technology in my life is ever-present. I now understand this and realize that many other people around the world have the same potential to succeed, but lack the tools. My goal in the project is to set up the computers and infrastructure in Ecole 1 in order to give the tools to children that undoubtedly have the same potential as my classmates, but do not have the tools.
