Welcome

This is the main organizational page for the OLPC educator community.


There are a number of ways to become involved with the OLPC project:

  • Read some background material on constructionist education;
  • Share ideas for innovative educational uses of the laptops;
  • Share ideas for educational content that could be distributed on the laptops or to OLPC's partner countries (see below);
  • Share ideas for educational activities, lessons, and curricula that could make use of the laptops in one of their many capacities;
  • Help modify and package existing content for use on the laptops;
  • Test early-stage laptops and content modules, and provide feedback on teacher and student experiences
  • Contribute to a Wikibook text in progress, such as Algebra 1 in Simple English
  • Contribute articles to Simple English Wikipedia. Information in simple English will be critical to these new learners.
