摘要

全球信息社会正以极快的速度发展，而发展中国家却落在了后面。Simputer(简单的手持计算机)技术的发展就是为了弥合数字鸿沟。我们在Simputer平台上开发了一个编程教程，并在坦桑尼亚的背景下测试了学习环境。对学生反馈的分析表明Simputer作为学习平台的可行性，与竞争技术的技术比较表明Simputer在发展中国家的潜力。Simputer的一个可能的未来应用是农村学校和村庄的艾滋病毒/艾滋病教育。

Simputer as a platform for ICT education in Tanzania

The global information society is evolving at breakneck speed but developing countries are left behind. The technology of Simputer, simple hand-held computer, has been developed to bridge the digital divide. We developed a programming tutorial on the Simputer platform and tested the learning environment in a Tanzanian context. An analysis of the students' feedback shows the feasibility of Simputer as a learning platform, and a technical comparison with competing technologies indicates the potential of Simputer in developing countries. A possible future application of Simputer is HIV/AIDS education for rural schools and villages.
