[IAEP] Sugar Network readings

[Laura Vargas]

Hi all, Hola a todos,

I'm sending some readings you might enjoy about the main (upstream) project
"Sugar Network" concept [1] as well as the first implementation on field
"Hexoquinasa" [2] and "la Red Azúcar" [3].

The design of this solution was the result of the second co-working
marathon (sugar camp lima 2011) hosted here in Perú. Our common challenge
was to provide #purpose to the masive OLPC hardware technology deployed on
field by adding value to the local cultures (extreme customization) and
value to the upstream communities (feedback channels to Sugar developers).

When reading please take into consideration not all functionalities
described on the Sugar Network concept have been implemented. Aleksey and
Sebastian are the main developers in case you have specific technical
questions or suggestions. As per pedagogical support we had the experience
of one active -on field- teacher who intuitively and recurrently used the
network for improving communication skills among her learners. Other than
that, I have assumed active Demo web-user support since Peruvian deployment
on field started on 2014.


I'm very grateful with Sugar Labs infrastructure team for the high level of
service provided so far all these years.  I'm also very happy we have
gotten to this point and hope to be able to continue articulating all
resources available to provide children with the best learning experience
we can deliver.


Blessings and many thanks for your time and support.

Re: [IAEP] [Sugar-devel] GCompris query

[Utkarsh Tiwari]

Hi,

Having lately worked with GCompris, I think their migration from Gtk to
QtQuick was a great step towards upgrading their software with latest
resource efficient technologies. Their most of the recent work involves
porting their old Gtk(Python) based activities to QtQuick(QML + JS) to
improve both performance and visuals.

I don't think it's possible to run GCompris' Qt based activities inside our
Sugar environment. However, in Linux Qt apps can be run using 'qmlscene'
included in Qt5.

Regards,
Utkarsh Tiwari

Who can tell me what the impact of the GCompris move from GNOME/gtk to
KDE/Qt means to our ability to use it with Sugar?
