Balob Teachers' College in Lae bought 40 laptop computer for its staff members to use in their teaching. They will connect laptops to projectors to lecture and intranet to post assigments and exams. The college aims to minimize use of paper in the next few years. However, the exercise comes at a price. The lecturers will pay 70% of the cost of the laptops.
