;Brief explanation: Speech-recognition technologies are interaction mechanisms that, nowadays, have evolved from "alternative" to "extended". Proof of this is the proliferation of such technologies in a wide range of domains. From smartphones assistants, medical-record transcriptions, smart cars, and TV command controls to many others. In this regard, not much have been seen in the education domain. This is could be due the fact that there is still a missing glue between the speech-recognition technologies and educational content developers. This project is about filling the gap, within the Sugar Learning Platform.

;Expected results:
 
* put together a speech-recognition engine that allow us to deploy it in offline scenarios (i.e., using PocketSphinx and Voxforge projects);
 
* put together a speech-recognition engine that allow us to deploy it in offline scenarios (i.e., using PocketSphinx and Voxforge projects);
 
* define a general architecture that will allow us to provide high-level speech-recognition functionality to the Sugar core and activities (i.e., exposing this engine as a DBus service);
