eLearning

Yet another eLearning company got funding... how many of them are out there?
Global eLearning - global - global? Have these people ever spent time in rural areas of developing countries?? My wild guess is NO.
THERE IS NO INTERNET access in those areas... and there will be NONE for a long time.

So it's not for those kids then... ok...
For children in well developed countries. With inexpensive widely availabale internet access. For our children.
Great!
Do we really think K-12 kids will be spending their own time doing eLearning? Some - maybe, the majority - probably not.

Notes from the First Bay Area Girl Geek Dinner.

It was amazing to see over 700 young and not-so-young women gathered [oh yes, there were few males :)]at Google's HQ in this rainy day to talk about Women and Technolgy, Women and Success, Women and confidence...
The message was: just do it!
