"The International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE®) is pleased to announce that Nicholas Negroponte and Dewitt Jones will deliver keynotes at its membership conference this year.
A pioneer of the digital age, Nicholas Negroponte is a founder of Wired magazine and author of the bestselling book, Being Digital, which has been translated into more than 40 languages. He also chairs MIT's Media Lab and its exciting new research initiative, One Laptop Per Child (OLPC).
OLPC, also known as the $100 laptop project, aims to revolutionize education by putting a compact, durable, no-frills but internet-ready computer into the hands of millions of children worldwide. A prototype of the $100 laptop debuted last fall at a UN conference in Tunis."
