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. Soon i explored the organisation and started loving it. Fortunately Gsoc 15 was a step ahead, so realized to finish something cool for kids & contribute to sugar labs as well. | ||

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. | One Additional feature would be to let user drop their own physics simulator to run PhysicsJS.

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.

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. I believe these projects will head to a big success in future. Geeks who loves science & puzzle especially would be regular users of these. | ||
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. | Javascript is the heart of entire develoment this year.

'''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> | '''What is the timeline for development of your project?

'''If your project is successfully completed, what will its impact be on the Sugar Labs community? Give 3 answers, each 1-3 paragraphs in length. The first one should be yours. The other two should be answers from members of the Sugar Labs community, at least one of whom should be a Sugar Labs GSoC mentor. | '''If your project is successfully completed, what will its impact be on the Sugar Labs community?

'''My Opionion''': Sugar believes that "Everyone is a teacher and a learner". My projects Physics & Dimensions would be one of the best available tools for learners and teachers. Around 3 Million Children are sugar users. We want Sugar and Sugar activities freely and readily available to learners everywhere, hence web ports are a dire need saying web platform are a faster & cheapest. Kids at any corner of world would be able to learn Physics quite practically and Dimensions to increase their observational skills that helps them think quickly & enrich their mental abilities. | '''My Opionion''': Sugar believes that "Everyone is a teacher and a learner".
