OLPC Translation Project

In November 2009, the Kosrae Department of Education will be receiving an order of 1200 OLPCs. These computers will be distributed to students in 5th - 9th grade (Next year, computers will be distributed to grades 1 - 4). To ensure that the students get the most out of these computers, we'd like to have all possible materials translated into Kosraean. To do this, we need the public's assistance.
