Laptop initiative


Laptop Initiative is a great opportunity for children to learn. I have stated in previous discussions how my circle of friends and their children use the Internet. My nieces and nephews absorb a great amount of time on their computer games and toys.
The laptop initiative is a great tool for educating children. The more children are exposed to learning instruments the more equip they will be in our fast pace technical world. Most jobs require some computer skills. These jobs consist of the employee’s ability to be a self starter with the basic computer skills as part of their knowledge.
Our children along with other countries should be given every opportunity to receive and be exposed to the latest technology available. The laptop initiative is a great opportunity to invest in the learning stages our children’s future. I believe in the phrase “a mind is a terrible thing to waste” they are going to channel their energy somewhere.
The laptop initiative is a great avenue to steer our children in the right direction. We should provide children with early computer skills and other tools available to assist with learning. They are our future we should invest early to ensure they are ready and equipment with the necessary assistance to be come great leaders, teachers and more because they have been provided the necessary tools.

  1. That is a great commentary and so true! My daughters use the computers and games. The sad part about computers as entertainment, sometimes they are also exposed to other things that we have to censor. It's the same with tv also. Thank goodness for the blocking programs!
