Essex Children To Get Wi-Fi Laptops
Posted: 17th Mar, 2004 By: MarkJ
Over the next three years Essex County Council is aiming to hand out roughly 20,000 Wi-Fi enabled laptops to teachers and pupils. The council then aims to link everybody up via wireless Internet access:
The "Anytime Anywhere Learning" (AAL) campaign is kicking off in the classroom, but the council's goal is to see the whole county go wireless, with businesses and residents all having cable-free access to the Net.
The idea is that teachers and students in participating schools will be able to access centralised content from the classroom.
The sign-up process is straightforward. Essex county council has extended an open invitation to schools to join. The schools and the PTAs then vote on whether to go ahead. Assuming the vote is a "yes", they get going with fund-raising efforts.
