Please join us in person -- reviewing how one small school is working
through extraordinary deployment challenges, attempting OLPC learning
approaches in the face of some almost insurmountable odds, thanks to
Nancie's small and overstretched but dedicated volunteer team:
Sunday February 7
12 NOON, Boston Time/EST
(NOT our usual 4PM time, so volunteers can call in from Vietnam!)
1 Cambridge Center
Cambridge, MA 02142
All Welcome, but RSVP REQUIRED (holt @ laptop.org and nanciesevers @
gmail.com). You will have the choice of attending in person or by
telephone -- with PowerPoint/PDF provided in advance and our US phone
number (free if you have a full Skype account) for conference-call

for worldwide live public broadcasts just yet, but stay tuned...
Bring Vietnamese Food!!!
