| − | 1. I gave a talk at [http://www.aldeadigitalmx.com Aldea Digital] — a two-week long public event in Mexico DF that is sponsored by the Carlos Slim Foundation — at the same time that the New Horizons space probe was passing the orbit of Pluto. The path to Pluto was anything but straight. NASA utilized multiple gravitational slingshots to accelerate the spacecraft, and direct and redirect its path. E.g., New Horizons approached Jupiter not to visit Jupiter, but to use the planet’s speed around the sun to increase the spacecraft's velocity (relative to the sun). I used the occasion to make an analogy to Sugar: we have built a FOSS platform that we intend as intellectual slingshots. Our goal is not to simply immerse the student in learning a particular language or toolkit or achieve a particular curriculum goal, but to use the immersion as a means to stimulate them to pursue their own goals and ambitions. | + | 1. Google Summer of Code 2015 is wrapping up. The students have been writing their final blog reports, submitting last-minute patches, and uploading their code to Google. I want to take this opportunity to thank all of our students and their mentors for all their hard work this summer. (Also, thanks once more to Google for supporting this program.) Great strides along many fronts were made. Specifically, |
| | | | |
| − | New Horizons, regardless of the success of its science mission, has already succeeded in tapping into a very human trait, the desire to explore the unknown and reach to new heights, hopefully enthusing the next generation of children to push even further. It is my hope that Sugar, in its small way, taps into the same human trait, also enthusing the next generation of children to push their limits.
| + | * Michaël Ohayon worked on Web versions of some core activities for the Sugarizer project: Calculate, Paint (with collaboration, Record, and Memorize. He also submitted patches to Turtle Blocks to make it compatible with Sugarizer. Michaël's [blog http://sugarizingparis2015.blogspot.fr/] and git [repo https://github.com/mikklfr] are worth visiting. (Mentor: Lionel Laske) |
| | | | |
| − | 2. Another Turtle workshop, also at Aldea Digital. I did an impromptu Turtle workshop here last year, using Sugar on a Stick to boot a bunch of Windows computers into Sugar. This year I used the web version of Turtle Blocks. The kids did fun projects and I am hoping because it is web based there may be some follow up this time. Carla Gomez Monroy (and her son Ian) joined me at the workshop, which made it extra fun.
| + | Yash Khandelwal worked on Music Blocks AKA Mouse Music. This is a powerful, playful model for music in a block language. Yash's [blog [https://sugarizingmusic.wordpress.com/] and git [repo https://github.com/khandelwalYash/Music-Blocks] are also worth visiting. (Mentors: Devin Ulibarri and Marnen Laibow-Koser) |

| | | | |
| − | 3. Call for papers for the special issue of RED (Journal of Distance Education):"Skills for coding and pre-coding":
| + | * Amit Kumar Jha worked on extensions to Turtle programming this summer. He added argument passing and return values to procedures, passing arguments to and returning values from Turtle programs so that Turtle Blocks can be used for in-line programming by all Javascript activities, and he developed a unit=test framework for Turtle Blocks JS that can be extended to all of our Javascript activities. See his [blog http://sugarlabs-artista.blogspot.in/] and the master Turtle Blocks JS [repo http://github.com/walterbender/turtleblocksjs/] for more details. (Mentor: Walter) |
