the content we created last time is at http://enableit.in/wiki/index.php/Gnulinux4cbse I suggest using GuidoVanRobot (http://gvr.sourceforge.net/) instead of using kturtle. We can use the pre build lessons included with the gvr. Also Gcompris is a very good tool for children. There is an activity to create animations/movies with it. The approach should be to enable the children to use the computer for solving problems. Just teaching the tools wont be enough for that. We can identify one or two activities for each of these tools and the children will learn the required features of the tool to do that activity. for example, "creating stamps for tuxpaint" can be given as an activity for gimp. In this the children will learn how to resize image, make the background of the image transparent etc.. for openoffice, introduce the openoffice draw first and give them activities to build posters and charts. the time is very limited, so i dont know whether this approach will work or not. Any way we can build an outline for the first two three chapters so that the school can start teaching it. regards, ~vimal -- Libarate your documents, Celebrate document freedom day 2010 Use OpenOffice : http://openoffice.org http://documentfreedom.org -- "Freedom is the only law".
