Mobile Phones and Language Literacy in Rural Developing Regions
Matthew Kam, Assistant Professor, Carnegie Mellon University and Founder, the MILLEE project
While high profile initiatives like One Laptop Per Child tout the potential of low-cost laptops to extend learning opportunities to learners around the world, especially those in rural and disadvantaged communities, many of the target communities are being slowly saturated with a computing device of a different sort: the mobile phone.
Please catch Professor Matthew Kawm on July 22, 2010 (Thursday), 4:30 p.m., Room 313, CTC Building, Ateneo de Manila University.
