Hi,

OLPC has a wide penetration amongst the primary school kids in developing 
nations with more than a million laptops already in the open and target of many 
more in several nations. Amongst this, I
wanted to know the figure for the times accessibility problems being faced with 
‘special kids’ not able to take the benefit of the XO laptops.
Gathering these statistics would be helpful as a point for requirement analysis 
point for my softare applications so that I could contribute a utility package 
for the laptops.

 

Regards

Harpreet Singh Sareen

Hi there,

Plan Ceibal in Uruguay has done a lot / is doing a lot of work when it
comes to making the XO and Sugar more accessible. Their efforts range
from special input devices to virtual keyboards, changes of the fonts, etc.

For more details I'd suggest you get in touch with Andrea Mangiatordi
(andrea.mangiato...@gmail.com), an Italian researcher who has been
working in this area in Uruguay for quite some time.

Hope that helps,
Christoph
