Training of Trainers
Open Learning Exchange Nepal (OLE Nepal) began the first part of training teachers to integrate E-Paati (XO laptops) in classroom teaching-learning process by conducting a four day training workshop on March 22-25, 2009. This training was designed to train master trainers from the Ministry of Education's teaching training body, the National Center for Education Development (NCED), for the next round of OLPC laptop deployment planned for April 2009.

Who We Are
We are the guys from upstairs who play loud music and disturb everyone else. Currently, there are eleven interns working for OLE Nepal. All of us are intelligent, hard-working, and energetic young high school graduates committed to helping change the Nepalese education system. We were too lazy to apply to colleges while still in school, so we had a year with nothing to do. Fortunately, OLE Nepal beckoned us, and now we have something interesting and worthwhile to fill our time with. Some of us are seasoned veterans who have worked long hours until late at night on weekends to meet deadlines. Others are newbies who grumble all the time about not having their own desktops.

Notes from Nepal's OLPC Deployments
We conducted four days of teacher training off-site and five days on-site in the classroom with both the students and teachers. A large portion of our teachers had never used a computer before but they learned very quickly. Their enthusiasm was amazing. Training during the off-site sessions formally ended at 5:30 pm but the teachers stayed in our training room each night until 11 pm, pounding away on the XO's and asking endless questions.
