Stop Wasting Money on Technology for Education

Halt tech funding initiatives. Better computers and better equipment help little compared to good teachers. Good teachers are paramount above all else. Money for tech should be spent on teacher training and teacher salaries. The same applies in Africa. Ditch the One Laptop Per Child program. Spend critically limited resources on what really matters. Stop trying to prime new markets for the tech industry: tech colonialism.
