Nicholas Negroponte and the One laptop per Child in Moroccan Context

The idea that Negroponte promoted is the one laptop per child. The professor want to produce a low cost laptop that will help children to aquire more knowledge and skills. I think that with this idea the gap between rich and poor will decrease because everybody will have access to computers and then to information. This procedures will be very helpfull for children to have access to sofisticated materials, but in the case of Morocco I am not sure that it will work. Morocco has many problems such as bad managment and corruption that can affect negatively Negroponte idea. in other words, if we ignore these problems that Morocco is facing we can say that Moroccan children can benefit a lot from this iniciative, but we have to teach them how to use this computers in order to have a maximum profit. So, I think that before applying this idea in Morocco, we have to overcome many barriers.
