[Etoys] {waveplace} florida pilot finish & nicaragua pilot begins

[Timothy Falconer]

Last week, Waveplace finished our pilot in Immokalee, Florida.  We'll  
be posting student storybooks soon, but for now you can watch our  
first Florida video, which gives a taste of our "improv theater"  
teaching style:

There are also several newspaper and radio reports on our press page:

as well as a few articles in our latest newsletter:

Today we start our pilot near Rivas, Nicaragua.  We're using Spanish- 
keyboard XOs and solar panels this time, since the school has no  
electricity.  Our three Waveplace mentors flew in last night and will  
begin teaching the teachers today.  The kids get their laptops tomorrow.

We've also created a Waveplace channel on YouTube, where you can find  
all of our videos:

Please leave comments and rank us, as we can use all the publicity we  
can get.

Take care,
Tim
