Re: [kde-edu]: Re: GSoC: Educational desktop
Hi, With this mail I send a first rough proposal for the KDE Educational Desktop (KDE Plasma Classroom Workspace is cutest :P). My name is Marc Mauri and I study Computer Engineering in Barcelona School of Informatics in Catalonia (Spain), I live in Barcelona too. My plan for Plasma Classroom Workspace is to make a workspace adapted to the teaching-learning process and all contexts, objects and actions in this process. In the document I start to define what the default activities should be: Student/Teacher Activity, Folder Activity, Calendar Activity, Classroom Activity and Subject/Lesson Activity. I introduce cross competences as an idea that should be present on Plasma Classroom. I think that I'm the right person for this task because I have technical knowledge about C++ programing language, and basic Qt knowledge. I've been in internship in my university preparing teaching material. It's not a problem for me to have a mentor 12 time zones away even I prefer a closer one. About language, I have not any problem talking and writing in English but Spanish or Catalan mentors are welcome too. Let's do Plasma Classroom rock! 2011/3/16 Anne-Marie Mahfouf annemarie.mahf...@free.fr On Wednesday, March 16, 2011 03:17:09 PM karan pratap singh wrote: HI Anne-Marie I asked Shantanu about co-mentoring on IRC just now, and he said that he would be happy to co-mentor along with you.
