Teachers Mirriam Banda, Nchimunya Musole and Betty Chocha practice using Etoys on the OLPC XO laptops. Together these teachers will create programs for teaching reading in seven Zambian languages at Lubuto Libraries.
Ellie Tomlinson and Henry Meyers introduced the One Laptop Per Child XO laptops at the first Lubuto Library in February.
Ellie and Henry traveled to Lusaka to show children, staff and library volunteers what the XO laptop can do and how to use it. Since this library primarily serves street children, this was not a typical target group for the 10 innovative laptops that were donated by the OLPC Foundation.
Henry and Ellie's two week training program was spectacularly successful and the XO program has proven remarkably sustainable. The children absolutely love the XOs and are using them to compose music, draw, learn the pronunciation of words, take pictures and – in an environment where internet access is not likely to be available in the foreseeable future – enjoy communicating between laptops using the XO’s mesh technology.
To commemorate International Day of the Girl last Friday, there was a special program at the Model Library where young girls from Girls Connect took over the roles of library staff with the theme "Girls Take Over." Their responsibilities included managing the reading room and tech hub where they collected data, led storytime and singing activities, shelved books, interacted with library patrons, and prepared for Lubuto movie time. The young girls performed their roles successfully and showed us that young girls can run a library--even for a day!
Girls Connect Zambia is an NGO formed in 2017 by a group of young girls. Their mission is to create opportunities for girls and empower them through mentorship programmes, training and uplifting their potential so that they are able to support themselves financially, mentally, emotionally and physically.
