Ask HN: Computer Lab in Developing Nation

4 points

3 years ago

I've been asked to help with the construction and opening of a computer lab in Belize. The plan is to have it used by the remedial school that will host it[1], but also available for use by the public. The target audience/content is more literacy-oriented than tech-oriented (think GED, not SWE).

I'm sure this is not the first one of these in existence, so I'd love to hear any tips/tricks or recommendations/precautions (both for the "developing nation" side and general "public computer lab" side). My personal background is more EE/SWE than IT.
