I learned from a computer. Actually, I programmed games when I was 9 years old. My parents couldn't help me because they didn't know a thing.
Anyway, someone said if a TI costs $120, this laptop can't cost $100. But, if you think carefully, TI and HP calculators are too expensive. A common laptop costs $1000. Does that mean that it has 8 times more power than a TI? It is 1000x faster, it has 1000x more memory, it has 100x more graphic detail. TI and HP calculators are the worst investment ever.
A texas instruments graphing calculator (ti84) goes for $120 and is at this point a necessity for high school math. If you realy think MIT is creating this to exploit the super poor market and not to bring the greatest education tool ever to the underdeveloped countries your an idiot. If it has at least the functionality of a calculator, or the copacity to store 5 books, or inspires one mind to push the boundaries of what is possible for them; it will be more valuable than gold.
i yhink computeras are so important for education. In some moment of the hisotory someone said "computers are the future". Now im saying "Welcome to the future"
I'm guessing this would only sell in developed countries. It might become standard use for kids whose families can't buy high end computers but want kids to learn computers.
This is quite possibly the goofiest bitch I've ever seen. She is the prototypical liberal college professor. Also, this is the stupidest idea I've ever heard of...come on, computers for education? I've only used computers as a reference for information. This just goes to show the validity of the saying, "Those who can't do, teach." How about a book drive or trying to improve schools in poor nations, beotch.
The laptops are going to be loaded with instruction materials so teachers can use them for teaching students. So basically, lots of books are already on them. Developing computer skills is educational in itself for some of these kids. These aren't going to starving kids in Sudan. It's for second world kids who, if they had access to the tech, could get the benefit of a first world education and economy.
where can i buy this!
