India’s Human Resources minister Kapil Sibal will unveiled the country’s $35 tablet computer meant for students. The tablet was developed as part of the National Mission on Education as a low cost alternative to high-end tablets which were available at $200. Even the latest tablet made by an Indian company called Pepper was priced $99. “The tablet would let children go beyond the boundary of classroom and teachers to acquire knowledge through IT,” said the minister at a function in New Delhi last month, and promised to make it available to every child in school. “The tablet shall help enhance the quality of learning of children…This is not just a dream, it is a reality.”
