As we communicated last week, we exposed Sugar and it's activities to Enlaces, Chilean's Edu-ICT national program (http://www.enlaces.cl/). We described generally the project and it's features and future implications, through a brief presentation:

These were selected intentionally, related to the K-3 level of the official curriculum. http://www.curriculum-mineduc.cl/curriculum/programas-de-estudios/educacion-basica/ After showing activities as Moon, FlipStick, Speak, we scoped in showing e-Toys (Challenge, DemonCastle demo), Scratch, Dr. Geo features, wanting to demonstrate the power of create/edit the resources. This led to many concerns around the appropiation/control in teachers. Another concern: many questions arose around the connectivity features. Outcomes: we where happy to have the presence of the Enlaces Director, who was excited and curious, so we motivated to considerate Sugar as a end-user solution to a ICT dotation program for K-3 public schools, to be deployed next year. Any advance, we will be happy to communicate them. Greetings Luis "Pato" Acevedo Werner Westermann www.educalibre.cl _________________________________________________________________
