Can educators plz help Geraldine (volunteer liaison to publishers worldwide, doing a fantastic job) focus her search below on what content/e-book/subjects Haitian kids need most on OLPC's XO Laptops running the Sugar Learning Platform?
Please reply to olpc-ha...@lists.laptop.org and/or post directly here: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Haitian_Creole_Translation_for_Education Thanks! Adam / SJ, Thank you for this vital piece of information. I will be sure to include this from now on in my dealings with authors/publishers of Kreyol language educational content when appropriate. Can you help me narrow my search by specifying the type of content/subjects I should be focusing on. So far on my list: * age range 6-10 * educational material in Kreyol (does that include content religious in nature?); public domain (jackpot!), licensed content (next best, and mostly likely the case) * audio/video matching above criteria * anything else? Let me know.
