whitepaper Kindergarten Achieves Greater Collaboration in the Classroom Within Limited IT Budget2009-06-15 Microsoft
  Situated approximately 100km west of the Malaysian capital city of Kuala Lumpur, Jenjarom was one of the many 'New Villages' set up in the 1950s. Villagers living in Jenjarom view education as the key to a brighter future and most families send their young children to Jenjarom's main pre-school center, the Aik Kuan Kindergarten. Aik Kuan wanted to introduce computer-based collaborative learning to its lessons, however setting up a classroom of computers would be expensive and beyond the kindergarten's budget. To facilitate active learning in the classroom, Aik Kuan became a pioneer by rolling out the Microsoft MultiPoint program in Malaysia. Using multiple computer mice that drive uniquely-designed on-screen cursors, MultiPoint allows up to fifty students to simultaneously use and learn from educational software on a single computer.

whitepaper Innovative Public-Private Partnership Helps Guatemala Equip More Than Two-Thirds of Its Teachers for the Future2009-03-20 Microsoft
  Improving the way public services are conceived and delivered is the perennial challenge of politics. More and more, governments are turning to technology to make public services accessible and citizen-centric in order to improve public policy outcomes. Yet technology is only one of the means to advance policy goals and its adoption does not guarantee success. However, when technology is embedded in the right reform package, with complementary efforts by all stakeholders, its transformative potential is unlimited. The Microsoft Partnerships for Technology Access (PTA) initiative takes this ecosystem approach, forming Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) to help governments optimize IT investments to achieve public policy priorities and empower citizens.
