Your best starting point is here: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Activities/Moon You also have the Telescope activity: http://activities.sugarlabs.org//en-US/sugar/addon/4481 And Alex Kleider demonstrating the telescope device designed by La Main à la Pâte (the "Hands On Science" foundation in France): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqAKK9tUIiY http://www.fondation-lamap.org/node/17992 > I can help on the creation of content or I can work together with > coders to produce an astronomic software tool. You can take this PDF and maybe explore possible adaptations, translations and/or enhancements: http://olpc-france.org/docs/Seminaire_edifolco_LAMAP-OLPC_dec2009-GB.pdf > I would also like to discuss the creation of a $20 telescope in the > same philosophy of OLPC. This is exactly what La Main à la Pâte has been trying to do. The design is here, they are only looking for massive commands to start the production -- AFAIK discussions are pending, but not conclusive so far. Hope this helps! -- Bastien _______________________________________________ Educators mailing list educat...@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/educators
