Musoma Secondary School, TanzaniaSolar-Powered Physics and Computer LabA secondary school without access to electricity in rural Tanzania used solar power and rugged Aleutia Eco PCs to train students in word processing and programming. Open source software enabled the school to simulate expensive oscilloscopes and thus offer an interactive physics lab. Note: since this initial test bed, we’ve supplied a further 15 E2s (along with 15 low power monitors), all equipped with Ubuntu 9.04 and running off solar power. |
