Hi Walter, Thanks for scraping that off the sur list.
+1 on the entire idea from me. My only concern is to try and keep it to one definitive page. This is the one I am currently aware of. http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities Are you talking about updating that or something else? Thanks, Greg S *************** Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2008 03:17:14 -0400 From: "Walter Bender" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [sugar] proposed addition to the Activities page templete To: "sugar List" <[email protected]>, Education <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 It obvious occurred to me after seeing some questions posed on the OLPC-Sur list: 4. There is an inventory of what activities can be used with mesh, nor what ways. 5. The mesh is only capable of some form of collaboration in small groups. Why don't we add a new field in the Activities page template that indicates both whether or not an activity supports some form of collaboration and, if so, what is the supported number of collaborators. (The latter may, of course, be somewhat fuzzy depending upon the nature of the connection: via school server or "under a tree"). We could have a simple set of options (the numbers perhaps need tuning): A) no collaboration B) pair-wise collaboration C) small (3-4) group collaboration D) classroom (10-20) collaboration We could break down collaboration a bit further: sharing interacting ??? and we may want to comment on, for example, how many Type A collaborations can be supported at once. An example of: A is Turtle Art B is Distance C is Write D is Chat We'd need to do some serious QA to figure this out, but I think it would go a long ways towards giving people a sense of what they can expect in terms of a robust use of Sugar. -walter _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
