Learn is a component of the Karma Learning System. When installed as a part of KLS, it is tightly integrated with the schoolserver. This version contains examples of units and lessons to show what can be created and delivered in a deployment using KLS. As a result it is a large download (~150mb). In KLS, it is about 1/10th of that size.
Learn is a component of the Karma Learning System. When installed as a part of KLS, it is tightly integrated with the schoolserver. The primary design goal is to provide local copies of lessons as needed so that the student can use them when not connected to the school server.
Version 51 enables evaluation of the activity independently of a schoolserver by using a USB removable drive.

Setup and installation using a removable drive ==
In the following XXX represents the label on the removable drive. If you run the Terminal activity and
enter the command: ls /media, you will see /media/XXX.
The Learn activity requires a recent (4+) version of Firefox. While Firefox is installed on versions of
Sugar with the Gnome desktop, it is an earlier version.
From the Firefox website, download the compressed Firefox file, e.g. firefox-11.0.tar.bz2. Copy this file
to the XXX drive.
From this website download these files and copy them to the XXX drive:
[[Image:Kls_demo_1.tar.bz2]] is a 45mb file which contains the sample content for the Learn activity
[[File:Firefox.sh]] is a script which installs Firefox from the tar file on the XXX drive.
[[File:Learn.sh]] is a script which installs Learn from the bundle.
Using two scripts simplifies the install process.
Download learn-51.xo from the Activities.Sugarlabs.org site. Copy this bundle to the XXX drive.
When this is done, the command: ls /media/XXX should show the following:
firefox-11.0.tar.bz2
firefox.sh
kls
learn-51.xo
learn.sh
Now mount the XXX drive on the XO.
Launch the Terminal activity.
Enter the commands:
cd
/media/KLS/learn.sh
sudo /media/KLS/firefox.sh
Upon completion of these commands, the script shuts down the XO.
The XO is ready. Restart to use Learn.
