The UW Engineers Without Borders One Laptop Per Child project is looking for new members!
The One Laptop Per Child organization's mission is to create educational opportunities for the world's poorest children by providing each child with a rugged, low cost, low power, connected laptop with content and software designed for collaborative, enjoyable, self-empowered learning.
The UW Chapter of Engineers Without Borders is working towards this goal by developing software for the One Laptop Per Child organization's XO laptop ( http://one.laptop.org/ ) and Sugar Operating System ( http://www.sugarlabs.org/ ). We are looking for anyone who knows or wants to learn Python and is interested in getting hand on experience in a project with real impact. Only minimal programming experience is required and the work is largely open ended.
If you are interested or have any questions, please email us at: uw.onelaptop@gmail.com
We meet on Fridays from 4pm-5pm in the Foster Business Library. You can check our wiki for the room number here: http://www.ewb-uwashington.org/wiki/index.php?title=One_Laptop_Per_Child
