Most recently in One Laptop Per Child we have been getting our old school computers ready to send to children in Africa to use, which I think is super cool that we can have an impact in a place so far and foreign to us. Our past class we started working on Scratch games to teach to the younger kids. I found this extremely interesting because I did not realize the critical thinking it takes in order to really develop something young kids can process and understand. We prepared questions that we could/would ask the kids, and it was really cool to know you are helping make an important impact in all these foreign countries, and I think that’s what makes this class so special is that we’re doing something bigger than all of us.
