[Edu-sig] laptop backlash

[thomas knoll]

I understand the goal of OLPC is to get the technology into the hand
of kids for self directed learning, not to get them into schools.
Unfortunately, it will be years and years before schools focus on
interactive education, and students will be the driving force.
Eventually they will demand it, and teachers will have to learn from
the students how to interact with them. I deeply appreciate OLPC's
focus on getting the laptops into the hands of kids, rather than
heading down the bureaucratic path of trying to get them into schools.
