Last thursday was not one more day in Villa Cardal. This uruguayan town of around 2000 people received national authorities and presse, as it probably had never happened in its history.
But what happened there was not only important for its settlers, nor for the country: It began the first experience of computation 1 to 1 that covers a 100% of the children that go to school.
This is quite a momentous occasion. We have been reading about OLPC for what seems like forever, but it has finally landed in one school in a Uruguayan town. The kids seem quite happy, not surprisingly!
