http://pages.ucsd.edu/~bgoldfarb/comt109w10/reading/Kraemer-... >Negroponte seems to question whether teachers
are needed at all. Speaking about providing
the rural poor a solid educational basis for
development at the 2007 Digital, Life, Design
conference in Munich, Germany, Negroponte
said: “It’s not about training teachers. It’s not
about building schools. With all due respect
[to Hewlett-Packard’s e-inclusion efforts], it’s
not about curriculum or content. It’s about leveraging
the children themselves. >David Cavallo, OLPC’s chief education architect,
says, “We’re hoping that these
countries won’t just make up ground
but will jump into a new educational
environment.” The OLPC people thought they were going to cause a literal, actual revolution in learning. Didn't happen. |
