Re: [IAEP] Narrative Interfaces at OLPC
Enjoyed the talks and discussion, some good questions/comments: - How do you make it easy to author? - Need to make it as easy as possible to author content, so you can make your own representations. - Is this a collection of skills someone actually wants to teach a 10 year old? *+1* for the achievement (and I assume reporting system for teachers). Also was fascinating to see a Bert Freudenberg inspired version of Microsoft Bob make an appearance ;) Stephen On Sat, Jun 18, 2011 at 12:23 AM, Chris Ball c...@laptop.org wrote: Hi, On Wed, Jun 15 2011, C.

''Narrative Interfaces'' at OLPC
Hi I did some work on writing a text based dungeon program. The dungeon file is purposefully plain text and can be easily edited by kids in Write. http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/User:Tonyforster#Text_dungeon The idea was that kids develop literacy and numeracy skills by creating dungeons and 'cheating' on existing dungeons. Playing the game visualise 2D spaces (could extend to 3D or even 4D) navigate compass directions N E S W and relationship to right, left text literacy can include subject related content problem solving Making/editing/reading a dungeon file all the above plus Cartesian coordinates variables word processing skills programming like skills create in any language The next step is to Sugarise it. The code so far is published. If anybody wants to take it on thats OK with me. Tony ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
