** What are you making
The educational toolkit is a software to facilitate discussion in classroom with the help of technology. The software will aim
at providing teachers and students with a tool to pose problems and then compare and discuss solutions. It can also be used as
a formal testing tool for class tests and provide a better gauge of a student's progress to the teacher.
Features
# Teacher makes questions.
# Students give answers via collaboration or individually. Students split in groups and go from their individual answers to a
collaborative answer
# Teacher can review all answers later
# Teacher gives individual or group feedback
** Who are you making it for
Primary, Secondary and Higher Secondary Students and Teachers.
** Why do they need it
It aims to act like a tool which does not take over the job of teaching, but promotes natural class environment and will aim
to fit in the classroom environment. The software promotes better examination methods and encourages group work which is vital
in any learning environment.
** What technologies (programming languages, etc.) will you be using?
The software is being developed in Python with emphasis on easy User Interface. The software is being developed in Python with
emphasis on easy User Interface. The software will use : PyGTK for User Interface; Telepathy and DBus Tubes for connectivity;
XML DOM API for xml
* What is the timeline for development of your project? The Summer of Code work period is 7 weeks long, May 23 - August 10; tell us what you will be working on each week. (As the summer goes on, you and your mentor will adjust your schedule, but it's good to have a plan at the beginning so you have an idea of where you're headed.) Note that you should probably plan to have something "working and 90% done" by the midterm evaluation (July 6-13); the last steps always take longer than you think, and we will consider cancelling projects which are not mostly working by then.
