[Edu-sig] OLPC on NPR ToTN Today

[Michael Tobis]

Thanks for the heads up.

It's not the only story and that one doesn't appear to be OLPC
centric. Alas, the spin is more or less as I suggested in my recent
posting.

See

which currently reads

===

Educators and politicians have pushed the goal of a laptop for every
student. But a number of early adapting schools say the laptops aren't
helping, and critics argue that the computers are simply a
distraction.

I'm listening to the stream on kut.org which you can do even if you
are overseas. Right now they are blithering about Don Imus. There will
also be a couple of stories about republican presidential contenders.
