Keynote: One to One Computing in School
On February 11, 2011 Christoph Derndorfer gave a keynote about "One Laptop per Child in Latin America and what we can learn from it" as part of a "One to One Computing in School" conference at University of Teacher Education Central Switzerland in Goldau. A recording of the talk is available in a variety of formats as are the accompanying slides. (Please note that the keynote was given in German.)
OLPC News South America road trip
Christoph Derndorfer, OLPC (Austria) volunteer and OLPC News co-editor, spent summer 2010 on the OLPC News South America road trip and traveled through Uruguay, Paraguay, and Peru to learn more about the OLPC projects in these countries. He documented his impressions and experiences on OLPC News and the OLPC (Austria) blog as well as in an in-depth 5-part article series on EduTechDebate, a joint discussion platform by The World Bank's infoDev and UNESCO.
