Greetings from Qatar!<\/p>\n

My entire “Learning and Technology<\/a>” Online Master of Arts in Educational Technology<\/a> class at Pepperdine University collaborated online to create a web site promoting the One Laptop Per Child Foundation’s Give One, Get One<\/a> promotion in which Americans pay $398 and get an XO laptop computer (known as the $100 computer) and a child in the developing world gets one as well. Donors also receive a $199 tax deduction. This special offer runs between today and December 31st.<\/p>\n

This learning adventure embraced by students was an opportunity for them to develop technological, project-management and advocacy skills, in addition to making the learning case for G1G1. It was gratifying to receive email messages from students thanking me for the assignment. Having a sense of purpose makes learning more meaningful.<\/p>\n
