[IAEP] IAEP Digest, Vol 44, Issue 25

[Tony Anderson]

Hi,

I have decided to return to Rwanda (I already had the return side of my 
ticket paid). A group in Stuttgart has provided 100 XO-1.5s to the St. 
Jacob's school in Kigali. As a private school, they are not as directly 
bound to Mineduc.

I was pleased to see a strong interest in the educational issues you 
mention here - the first time at a Sugar/OLPC meeting. The immediate 
focus is on establishing an online repository for the lesson plans and 
content bundles that have already been created.

I spend three weeks in Haiti with Adam Holt, Nick Doiron and George Hunt 
at École Shalom. We tried the schoolserver and Learn activity as ways to 
deliver lessons requested by the teachers. While the results were 
encouraging, they proved we are a long way from a production capability 
to deliver courseware.

Christoph Derndorfer is coordinating the effort and I'll see that you 
are included in the emails.

Tony
