Category:OLPC Korea

Welcome to OLPC Korea, a citizen group with various backgrounds, focusing on pouring some SUGAR on South Korea.

Now, we are doing some interesting trials via OLPC. We want to pour SUGARs on not only elementary schools but pre-primary, secondary, and even (under)graduate schools also. Our intentions are largely due to the IT environment and governmental plans of South Korea herself. Those of South Korea are a little bit different from those of nations which OLPC aims to be deployed first.

In summary, we (some Korean citizens) want to apply OLPC architecture (that is, children's machines, school servers, sugars and mesh networks) to;

• from pre-primary to graduate schools
• governmental organizations
• business entities
• houses

And again, we want to distribute NOT ONLY OLPCs, but its derivatives ALSO. That is;

• OLPC for primary schools
• A derivative for secondary schools
• A derivative for colleges
• A derivative for governmental or business entities

School servers also have some derivatives.

Once again, our decisions are NOT by our dreams, BUT by the current IT infra of South Korea and the long-term IT plans of its government, so called [ the Vision 2030 of the Korean Government].

Because of worldwide participation onto our projects and activities, this wiki is written mainly in English and I (Do Young-Min) am in charge of writing English articles here. For information in Korean, please visit wko.in.
