[OLPC_Boston] Illinois Math and Science Academy OLPC Deployment at CFS (private school) in Boston

[Arjun Nayini]

Hi Everyone,
This is just an update about our progress in our deployment plan in Boston
with CFS.  Today we met with some students from Harvard's OLPC Chapter and
we've discussed the logistics of the process.  Our basic goals are 1) to
create a customization stick that adheres to the curriculum at the school,
2) To implement an XS server for the school, 3) To train a student group
capable of maintaining the technology, 4) introduce both teachers and
students to the computers and the possible benefits in terms of educational
experience and the curriculum.  We intend on meeting with CFS teachers and
ITS staff in order to begin implementing these changes as soon as tomorrow
(Monday, January 5th).  Most of our progress will be kept on wiki.laptop.org ,
specifically at our Boston
Pilot<http://wiki.laptop.org/go/ILXO_Boston_Pilot>page.  If you are
interested please feel free to contact anyone involved in
the IMSA <http://wiki.laptop.org/go/IMSA> Chapter or send us an email.

Academy)
