About

The Open Learning Exchange (OLE) emerged out of the OLPC program and is focused on working within countries that are committed to achieving universal basic education for their school-aged children by 2015.  We are establishing OLE Centers throughout the world to provide online free and open educational resources and a course development studio for the development of k-12 materials for teacher training and support and for student learning.  You can learn more about OLE by going to our website (www.ole.org).

OLE currently has centers in China, Ghana and Nepal.  We are in the process of developing additional centers throughout the world.  These centers are looking for help in translating educational materials into their languages, creating new materials, teacher development and providing technical assistance in setting up and managing online networks for their teachers and students. 

We hope you will choose to volunteer for this effort. If this is of interest

We will do our best to place you in contact with an existing OLE Center or one under development.
