Clean Water or Education

Folks,

With so many needs in Haiti and limited funds, Bill Steltzer asked a mentor
in Haiti if they should be doing a computer program in Haiti when they
really need clean water, food and shelter.

So with limited funds which do you choose? Clean Water or Education?
Why not both?  That is what we are trying to do with lesson plans on Water
and Sanition. They include a lesson and an engineering challenge on building
a Solar Still.

The YouTube video poses the question and shows a powerful Etoys project done
by a girl in Haiti just after the earthquake.
