OLPC

One Laptop Per Child is a non-profit organization, founded by Nicholas Negroponte, which provides children in third world countries with a laptop so that they can have the ability to gain technological knowledge. In addition, these laptops can be a light source for the children's homes. To operate these laptops, there is a crank on the side of it. Wind up the crank, and the laptop can operate up to 10 hours. Also, the program makes sure that the laptop goes into the hands of the child. Personally, I think the OLPC program is a great opportunity for children who do not have access to a computer, and I would like to be a part of such a program.
For more information, visit the One Laptop Per Child site.For even more information, read the article written by Mr. Vogel on it.

The Beginning of ICT 12

what we're beginning to lear now in Information & Communications Technology 12 is computer programming. We will be working with programs like Turbo Pascal, C++, and Visual Basic. Right now, we are working with the program Turbo Pascal. We made programs like multiplying three numbers together, displaying a "Hello" message to the "World" and finding the average mark for five classes.
