Hi Everyone, I've been running the Australian training for teachers and the XO-certification course at laptop.moodle.com.au course is available for everyone to view when logged in as a guest. This course was mainly pulled together by myself and some other team members at OLPC Australia- Liddy Neville produced the previous course that some of you mentioned. It is no longer active and cannot be accessed.
Anyone is welcome to use the course materials to build on for their own training purposes- it is (BY-NC-SA). The learner manual is a synthesis of much of the great info out already about the project and XOs- but it should be noted much of the technical information is specific to the Australian build. If you would like to rework it, it has been put together in a nice little tool called eXe (http://exelearning.org/wiki), another open source project, which allows you to export to interlinked html pages, and I have posted the manual here ( http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16659157/Modifications%20to%20manual%20for%20OLPC.zip). While the manual and course itself is available to reuse as you wish, please note that participant responses in forums or lessons they have posted are not- please don't reuse their work without asking them, especially since Australian teachers have varying intellectual property clauses related to their employment depending on the jurisdiction. The course is not available for enrolment for people outside the Australian program because I simply don't have time to facilitate that number of participants. It's also highly contextualised to Australia so it wouldn't necessarily make sense for teachers from other countries to work through it as is. Please feel free to email me if you have any further questions or I can help with anything. We're very keen to contribute to the OLPC international community if we can!

I sent her a message to get the "key" as the course access is restricted - disappointing for something that is part of an open community. Hope to hear from her and take a look around. It looks like she hasn't accessed this site in more than a year. If the Australia original site has been updated more recently, it would be most current.
