| Nortel LearniT partners with One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) in support of an initiative to provide 21st century learning experiences for children around the globe. OLPC has developed an innovative laptop, the XO, designed especially for children. Nortel LearniT has created a unique approach to engage learners, resulting in the creation of new content that furthers educational experiences for others. The OLPC program and Nortel LearniT are focusing on building mechanisms that support the users of the XO after they've been delivered by encouraging the community to document and share their experiences in its use. Learn more and share your thoughts at the OLPC-Nortel LearniT Weblog. A number of 'learning teams' and projects using and supporting others using the XO have been launched and more information can be found here. Resources for using the XO Nortel LearniT has prepared for the web and compiled some guides for using the XO and learning about its open source environment:
