The One Laptop Per Child organization has announced it is launching an internship program to send graduate and undergraduate students to Africa to help out with creating educational opportunities for children in African nations. Dubbed OLPCorps, the program will outfit up to 100 student teams with 100 OLPC XO laptops and up to $10,000 to cover operating expenses, and the teams will spend nine weeks in an African nation working directly with community and education partners to integrate the XO laptops into children’s primary education.
