Thanks for all the good input. I wasn't expecting this much response!
Sorry for the delay in response, other duties have kept me away from
coEL.
A couple of clarifications:
First, perhaps I was a tad harsh when I said that Sugar was "in no way
optimized for the high school learner". I apologize if I sounded a
little tough -- in fact, you've got a excellent start, it just needs a
little work. But that'll come with time. I'm working on prototyping
some sketches of what an ideal multitouch-enabled, high school version
of Sugar would look like and will post more when I get a little
further along.
I do realize that there are a few OLPC deployments in the US, but my
dream will only work if there are /many /deployments. See, I've
thought about this, and part of the whole idea behind coEL is
anywhere, anytime learning. I'd personally love to take a class
(livestreamed) from another whole district. But in order for that to
work, both districts would have to have coEL deployments.
Also, I will look into the HIG and eBooks in detail later... thanks
for the links! Is there anything else I should/can be doing to help?
Hi Brett,
How about joining us Oct 22-24?
Sorry our global community summit site (OLPC SF/Sugar Labs/Realness) is
not yet live, but drafts will emerge here in coming weeks :)
