Status: | Released/Hibernation Version 2.1 Released 11/12/10 |
Group Members: | Nathaniel Case, JT Mengel, Sarah Wagner, Mitchell DeMarco, Anthony King, Anthony Lubrani, Jonathan Sanger, Steven Schoenfeld, Justin Lewis |
Lemonade stand (or more likely, *Insert produce here* stand) is a collaboration project at RIT. It is designed to test children on fractions, working with money, estimation, and other math topics. While our time restraints limit the extent to which we can implement features, the current goal is a feature complete program even if lacking in graphics. We plan on having a system based on buying and selling commodities and an eventual season based economy.
The largest and most complex task of the project will be the introduction of a basic AI to handle the economy, more graphics, and localization. We are planning on introducing the game with a generic currency model while being easy to replace for regional types. Lemonade Stand is taking a short hiatus following the 2.1 release to identify the next series of features to implement for the next release. |

Addboard
Assimilate
Status: | Unknown Unknown |
Group Members: | Dennis Jalbert, Brendan Reen, James Kolb |
This project is one of many small projects focused on developing 4th grade math games which will run on the OLPC XO. We are RIT students who are working on this with the help of other developers who become interested in our projects.
The focus of this project is to turn an existing game (Assimilate) into a math based flash card game which will hopefully be included on future XO's. |
Colour The Part
Status: | Abandoned tarball source |
Group Members: | Spence Thompson, Forrest Marvez |
Incorporating math and color theory onto a platformer, create a fun and educational activity targeted at 4th grade Math students. The activity uses elements of platform games with obstacles and puzzle solving to teach addition and multiplication of fractions while keeping the player entertained. |
Ethos
Status: | Prototype In Progress |
Group Members: | Berulacks |
A small platforming game. |
Fun Towers
Status: | Unknown unknown |
Group Members: | Eric Mallon, Tyler Bragdon, Chris Daniels |
Fun Towers is a pre-existing game that can be found online in several version (http://www.funnytowers.com/ is one example) that has been ported to the XO, written in Squeak. Our team is modifying this purely numerical/card based game into one that can be used as a teaching tool as part of the 4th grade math project.
Our initial goals in modifying the pre-existing game remain relatively simple and achievable, and our goal is to produce verifiable results that can be used to point to the very preliminary success of the math4 program, while more in-depth projects are still in development. The game itself is simple, users are given a card and with it are able to remove from one of 3 pyramids of cards a card that is one greater or one lower in value. This card that has been removed is the users new card, and any cards that were covered by the removed card are now in play. |

MiniGameMayhem
Muthris
Status: | Unknown unknown |
Group Members: | Douglas Krofcheck |
Muthris is a math themed, Tetris-based game inspired by Cuyo. Players control falling blocks which must be grouped in certain math related ways in-order to clear that grouping from the board. The level is lost when the board fills up with blocks. Players learn math skills by fun repetition of simple mathematical problems and the grouping of sets of numbers. Levels are abstracted away from the core game. This allows one to simple drop in new levels and learn different mathematical concepts. |

schoolserver.rit.edu
The XO school Server, or XS, is one of the products of the OLPC project, designed to complement the XO laptop. It is a Linux-based OS (a Fedora-based distribution) engineered to be installed on generic low-end servers. When we deploy one laptop per child, we must also provide additional infrastructure extending the capabilities of the laptops. While the laptops are self-sufficient for many learning activities, other activities and services depend on the School Server providing connectivity, shared resources and services. Services, tools and activities running on the School Server allow asynchronous interaction, can use larger storage capacity, and take advantage of the processing power of the XS.
Teacher Reporting
Status: | Unknown Unknown |
Group Members: | Wesley Dillingham, Jeremiah Green, Fred Grose |
Our goal is to allow results and / or grades, from student activities to be readily available to teachers.
- Based on their wants and needs,teachers can then generate custom reports on a class or Individual. Teachers Have the ability to determine what types of problems students are finding most difficult. - Additionally we envision logic in the module which analyses student activity and checks for a yes |
Teacher's Tools
Status: | Unknown Unknown |
Group Members: | Alex Jones |
A tool for teachers to help evaluate how well their students have learned certain material. It will be similar to Assimilate but help the teachers learn the weak points of their students' knowledge. |
