Bringing Raspberry Pi to classrooms
At OLE Nepal, we strive to bring the best new technology to our classrooms. It's never easy to embrace a new piece of technology, for teachers are resistant to the change, with factors like power cuts and budget making up a huge share of challenge. So we set our selection of the technology based on the 3 prime constraints; low-powered, portable, and low cost. And for these traits, Raspberry Pi steps up as the knight in shining armor.

OLE Nepal's venture into open sourcing E-Paath(2-6)
OLE Nepal's pursuit of digitizing educational material up to grade 10 recently reached a major milestone as we completed the development of content for grade 8. Although this is quite the achievement, computer technology is such an ever-evolving field that the content developed for grade 2 to grade 6—using Flash—has become technologically outdated. Consequently, OLE Nepal, in our endeavor of improving education through computer science, decided to make our code base for grade 7-8, developed using HTML5, JS, and CSS, open source and involve students from various fields of computer science into our project to redevelop the content for grade 2-6.
