Please do a computer laboratory instead. This way, all the school will be covered, and the cost will be low since upgrade will be after say 3 years.

Now that application is definitely ideal for Class 1 and they can afford the Kes. 288 million tender bond.

That video is really inspiring Robert! It justifies! I think the way to beat obsolescence is to schedule new devices every three years.

Sincerely,

When Gutenberg invented the printing press in 1440, only about 30 percent of adult Europeans could read. Before that, most people learned from other people, through stories, explanations and demonstrations. Books existed, but they were produced by hand, painstakingly, one at a time. With books so expensive and rare, only those wealthy enough to afford them learned to read.

Then the printing press made books and other printed materials readily available, and literacy rates began to climb.

In the US, most primary schools have computer labs and secondary school students carry laptops. Why? Young children need exposure as early as possible but a 1 to 1 ratio is overkill. These machines will be obsolete by the time the class one students reach anywhere near class 5 when more serious research projects are started. The effort is in the right place, however there still needs to be more thought into the deployment to maximize return on investment in terms of human capital.
