iPad tablet on solar energy for Zimbabwe

In the near future, students in rural schools in Zimbabwe will have Tablet PC iPad, which charge will be provided by solar energy. This was explained by Minister of Education, Sports and culture of this country Koltart David, who met with Apple in Europe.
The minister said the program could start as early as next year.

"I am very happy that Zimbabwe works with Apple's innovative technologies to advance education in the most remote corners of the country. If we succeed in Zimbabwe, I am sure that the program will spread throughout Africa. "

On this continent, this approach is particularly appropriate, given the abundance of sunshine throughout the year. The step was agreed upon after Apple decided to join the joint venture with the Zimbabwean government, which aims - to reduce the digital divide between rural and urban areas of the country.

According to local newspaper Newsday, in most educational institutions do not have even basic infrastructure. Mugabe's government previously "donated several laptops" within the project of computerization of the village, but they were either stolen, or never used due to lack of electricity.

The Government's program involves the creation of a new type of rural schools that rely on solar energy, Tablet PCs and Apple micro projector in the education of children.

Meanwhile, the idea of ​​using solar energy to reduce or eliminate the cost of electricity and replace expensive paper manuals electronically is becoming more popular. Given that so long as such schools do not even have traditional computers, iPad will have a good help in education of students in Zimbabwe.
