	~~:'''Ideas'''~~
	~~What was the first hurdle you had to overcome on day 1?~~

	~~This stuff is fully covered~~ in the ~~Floss manual~~		== Background ==
	~~but IMHI does not jump out at you fast enough!~~		I have introduced two new learners to Sugar on a Stick and felt the need to provide some sort of crib to get them started. It was in the form of a postcard printed with an image similar to the one used here.

	~~Judging from the "undiscoverable" pages, others have failed to solve some very basic navigation challenges on day 1.~~

	~~:'''Further Ideas ... not day 1, but sessions 2 to 10'''~~

	~~:'''Presentation'''~~

	~~Is conveying this information in a small image, a good idea?~~

	~~What should be added or taken away?~~

	~~My ambition would be to link some sort of variant of this file to:~~

	~~[[Getting Started]]~~

	~~[[Sugar on a Stick/Explore]]~~

	~~http://en.flossmanuals.net/sugar/~~

	~~and/or a Micro_Help, perhaps packaged as a one frame activity?~~

	This is a good idea, that when perfected, could be used in the SoaS boot animation (perhaps limited to the first few boots) or as a special help panel that appears on the first few uses of the Frame, to assist new users. Thinking in those terms might reduce the images to the essential elements to fit the Sugar design theme.

			Most text should be replaced by pictograms. Not all learners are yet literate, and "pictures can replace thousands of words". Sugar is also an international platform that prefers a pictographic interface. For example, the words, "Cursor to corner/edge: Show Frame - Cursor away from edge: Hide Frame - F6: Lock and Unlock Frame", could be demonstrated by small pictograms. --[[User:FGrose\|FGrose]] 13:14, 27 October 2011 (EDT)
