I am new to Open Source. However i have earned a little contribution to an open source organisation Code for India.

Education is something which is very close to my heart. Sugar labs is an outstanding organisation. I am excited by each effort this organisation takes for child education. I came to know about sugar labs through OLPC laptops which i want in govt. schools of my capital with the help of existing Govt. Soon i explored the organisation and i started loving it. Fortunately Gsoc 15 was a step ahead so realized to finish something cool for kids & contribute to sugar labs as well.

PhysicsJS and DimensionJS are Javascript ports of Sugar's Physics & Dimensions activities. When Physics is a natural playground and a physical world simulator,Dimensions is a pattern matching game which is a wonderful tool to test observable skills of students.

I have divided PhysicsJS development into 3 phases:
 
1. Making a Creatable Physics which is similar to a Paint Program and this section will be same as python version of our physics activity.
 
2. Developing Visual Physics 3. Developing Physics Quiz.
 
One Additional feature would be to let user drop their own physics simulator to run PhysicsJS. Further i am planning to cast a comparison model of how well users model does vs observed data.
 
DimensionJS would be same as python version with bunch of smart behaviours of Robot. As said, Dimensions encourages observable skills of users, i will try mostly to make Dimensions as smart as possible.I have good skills in Data structures & Algorithms. This would help me in smartly scale the difficulty levels of Dimension based on user smartness.
 
Education has to be collaborative & competitive. Physics & Dimensions are a nice attributes to these senses. They not only let you imagine physical world eye to eye & match pattern at first place, they also provide a progression of tools for users such that they can go from simple to rich interactions with the powerful ideas in computation. These project will head to a big success in future. Hence it is a dire need to make it for geeks who loves science & puzzle especially.
 
Javascript is the heart of entire develoment this year. I would build above already available Sugars's modular web-activity. Further i would use better tools or simulators for precise & perfect collisions or other physics behaviour as well, e.g. Box2djs. 


'''What is the timeline for development of your project? The Summer of Code work period is from May 19 - August 22; 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 (27 June); the last steps always take longer than you think, and we will consider cancelling projects which are not mostly working by then.<br>
