Teaching Matters has decided to pilot set of OLPC laptops in a middle school in Harlem to determine if the laptop will provide the access necessary to take advantage of the programs we are designing to support technology rich learning environments. We will test out our middle school writing program – Writing Matters first.
We had a conference call with the school principal, Teaching Matters staff, and discussed goals and expectations of the project. Our first classroom at KAPPA IV in Harlem has been indentified, are on board and excited. Now if we could only get the XO to connect to the internet!
Our formal draft of the goals and objectives for the project.
