A physicist in India had a radical idea when he offered new opportunities to some of India’s poorest children. What would happen if they were given access to a free high speed Internet computer? Director/Reporter Rory O’Connor filmed some of this experiment for FRONTLINE/World and a video clip is available on the PBS site at http://www.pbs.org/frontlineworld/stories/india/thestory.html. Additional clips are available at http://www.globalvision.org/program/how/how.html. This inspiring story addresses issues of the digital divide and shows the power of what can happen when new doors of information are opened.
