$50 Handheld to Mexico Students

Dian Schaffhauser reports that Stanford University School of Education and Innovations for Learning have entered into an agreement to bring the $50 Teachermate Handheld Computer to children in Latin America.

“Mobile learning technology loaded with innovative educational content for basic literacy and numeracy seems to be in a dire need in many regions of the global community today,” said Paul Kim, CTO for Stanford’s School of Education.

Jon Van reports that Teachermate assists Chicago students reading and math and lets teachers program tools, track their progress.

ILF has assembled an impressive set of partners.

In 2008, IFL is launching pilot sites in New York City, New Orleans, Detroit, San Anonio, Phoenix, Denver, and Phoenix, Dallas and suburban Denver.

While not a PC, the Teachermate demonstrates an inexpensive and admittedly incomplete step toward school related mobile learning on-demand.

Kudos, IFL for your development and Stanford for entering into an agreement to work with them for the development of mobile learning content.
