I want to follow up on requests made for candidates to have plans if | |||
elected to the SugarLabs board. To keep it short, I'll write three lists | |||
with two items each. | |||
1) Outreach to other education programs | |||
* Mozilla Drumbeat. Connect http://hackasaurus.org and Mozilla's growing education community with our Sugar community. | |||
* Citizen science groups. When I was supporting an OLPC class in Cambridge, Cornell's program was interested but wanted to reach more Sugar users. | |||
2) Supporting science classrooms | |||
* Explain how to build simple sensors for programs such as Flower Bridge ( recently featured on http://blog.laptop.org ) | |||
* Write lesson plans for experiments that use only a few materials, such as these: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Ndoiron/SocialCalc also available in Mongolian: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Ndoiron/SocialCalc/Mongolian | |||
3) Encouraging literacy over the web | |||
* Identify English and Spanish reading materials appropriate for school, and make the list prominent on SugarLabs wiki and homepage. | |||
* Suggest materials from NaNoWriMo, get students' work posted on school servers or on a major deployment's website http://ywp.nanowrimo.org/how-does-nanowrimo-work-for-educators | |||
