Changes

I believe that my experiences teaching Sugar in Uganda and Haiti, and my development work with Plan Ceibal in Uruguay, would help me provide valuable input to the board's decisions.  As a 2012 Code for America fellow ( http://codeforamerica.org/2011/10/13/meet-code-for-america-2012/ ), I will be working closely with city governments to find open-source solutions to common problems.  As I see it, Sugar Labs is a major player in the development of open education, but should take further steps to cover traditional math and science disciplines.  My recent work on Memorize with Sensors, Mapa Ceibal, and Crikey (a modified Measure activity) are my endeavors to make this possible without losing our engaging constructionist ideals.
