Content creation must be part of the students work, whereby they can directly feel the original idea. Amit Dhakulkar's use of a gps to teach physics, maths and geography is one such. Kids in Khalapur recording tales told by their grandparents is another. Many such absolutely interesting stuff in Khalapur. -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
