As Nicholas Negroponte said, “It's an education project, not a laptop project.”
indeed, when the world becomes increasingly globalised, more children from poorer countries will be expected to enter into the global workforce with relevant IT skills and knowledge as well.
Apart from relying on just traditional solutions to alleviate these children's plight, this laptop can provide a collective source of true learning opportunities for them.
More importantly, this laptop is a recent evolution of laptop design, something similar to an e-book.An e-book can then be used for outdoor fieldtrips.This makes quality learning more convenient and highly accessible at any possible area. Furthermore, some people from developed countries are attracted to this concept and may purchase its related products. This revenue will then be diverted as funds to support the poor children continuosly.
Secondly,this laptop is very affordable, power-efficient, responsive, and durable . Students from developing countries will be able to use them under harsh climatic conditions. Learning will not be disrupted as a result if there is a heavy storm coming.
Thirdly, by the looks of its consistent progress through online updating, there is hope for it to be made widely available to the children in the near future. They need not have to wait in vain as numerous experts were already committed in helping them.
Lastly, there is a strong likelihood to close up the digital gap before it widens further due to income inequality. Friendly ties can be forged between developing and developed countries. This is very crucial in creating a humanitarian society where everyone enjoys to live in.
