New Kids On The Blog. Not my cute title this time – this is the heading for an NEA piece on K-12 blogging. This is an introductory level description of blogging, but the examples are worth a look.

$100 Laptop
Months ago, I commented on the plans of Nicholas Negroponte (MIT) to develop a $100 laptop (link).
CNET is now carrying an update on that story.
It’s an education project, not a laptop project. If we can make education better–particularly primary and secondary schools–it will be a better world.
By the way, if you visit the CNET site to read this story, make sure you explore the graphic organizer tool “The Big Picture” showing interconnections of the story on the $100 computer and other news stories.
Andy Carvin makes available the audio for Negroponte’s presentation.
