Are you a Teacher?

If so, please


Are you a Developer?

Learn how to get involved:

We expect to have monthly releases for a short while, followed by three-month update cycles; with activity developers soon able to follow their own cycles.

We also host regular Jams to code activities of various sorts. Games and News activities have been topics of recent events.

Are you a Grade School Student?

Students can:

  • Test software and content by joining our review squad, attending testing Jams, or setting up a testing session with their class.
  • Communicate with kids who have XO laptops. (Our penpals program is coming soon; see ePals for a related activity.)


Make things; share what you know!

Everyone can

Can you Translate? Interested in accessibility?

We ♥

We are looking for help translating this wiki, our most-used core software, and the many activities and content bundles being made.


Educational Organizations can help

Your educational organization can help review materials, adapt its own materials for the XO laptops, or connect groups of participants in specific programs. We are working together to build a network of open projects and open source tools and materials.

You can see some of the organizations that are getting involved, and sign up, at the Curators and coordinators page.


For large-scale ways to get involved, you might also want to look through Getting involved in OLPC. If you have a bit of time and want to get started quickly reading or editing, some other links are included here.
