Un racconto inusuale per Archeologia Informatica per uno speciale estivo tutto da gustare sotto l'ombrellone. Di solito non ci occupiamo della storia “recente” cioè di avvenimenti dopo l'anno 2000, ma in questo caso racconteremo la storia di qualcosa che è stato probabilmente un “unicum” nella storia dell'informatica e che difficilmente potrà ripetersi.Successe infatti all'inizio di questo nuovo millennio che qualcuno si pose la domanda se si potesse migliorare il mondo in maniera fattiva, trasformare l'istruzione per i bambini di tutto il mondo; questo obiettivo doveva essere raggiunto creando e distribuendo dispositivi educativi per i paesi in via di sviluppo e creando software e contenuti per tali dispositivi.Nacque così un'iniziativa senza scopo di lucro chiamata “One Laptop per Child” (O.L.P.C.) cioè “UN COMPUTER (portatile) PER OGNI BAMBINO”, ascolteremo il racconto di questo sogno utopico che vede protagonisti tanti grandi dell'informatica a partire dal fondatore Nicholas Negroponte e grandi aziende come Google, Red Hat, Nortel Networks fino a Microsoft, direttamente dalla voce di un italiano che sin da subito ha abbracciato il progetto e lo ha seguito negli anni: Bernardo “Bernie” Innocenti.Buon Ascolto!

Do you remember the One Laptop Per Child program? What went wrong, and what can we learn from the program's failure? What are the potential pitfalls of charismatic technology, and how can we avoid them when introducing students to programming? This week on the show, former guest Al Sweigart and author Morgan Ames are here to talk about her book "The Charisma Machine - The Life, Death, and Legacy of One Laptop per Child."

On this episode of Leading Lines, producer Cliff Anderson brings us an interview with Morgan Ames, author of The Charisma Machine: The Life, Death, and Legacy of One Laptop Per Child, published in 2019 by MIT Press. One Laptop Per Child, or OLPC, was a non-profit initiative launched in 2005 to bring low-cost laptops to children in developing countries, under the assumption that doing so would transform education in those countries. In the interview, Morgan Ames talks about the origin of OLPC, the challenges the program faced, and its legacy on computing and education.
