− | 1. Just back from two exhilarating weeks in India. Along with Harriet | + | 1. Sugar Labs will be participating in Google Code-in again this year. Ignacio |
− | Vidyasagar, I visited with Sugar and OLPC aficionados in Delhi, Goa,
| + | Rodriguez and I are the program administrators and are gathering |
− | Mumbai, and Guwahati. It was quite eye-opening. (Salil Konkar documented the
| + | suggestions for bite-sized tasks in coding, documentation, research, design, |
− | trip in a [http://monsoongrey.wordpress.com/2012/09/12/walter-benders-india-visit/ slideshow]
| + | and outreach. We'll also be scouring the open issues in the various |
− | on his blog.)
| + | Sugar-related repos for tasks. Please pass your suggestions our way. Also, if |
| + | you are interested in mentoring, please contact me. Finally, it would great if |
| + | you could help spread the word about the contest among educators so that we can |
| + | reach out to as many potential participants as possible (the contest is open to |
| + | 13-17 year olds). GCI is a great opportunity to recruit new talent into the |
| + | community. Details of the contest are available at [https://developers.google.com/open-source/gci/resources/contest-rules developers.google.com]. The Sugar Labs page |
| + | describing our participation is at [[Google Code In 2017]]. |
| | | |
− | The first stop was Delhi. Harriet had arranged meetings with Sesame
| + | 2. There is a new release of Music Blocks available [https://github.com/walterbender/musicblocks/releases/tag/v2.1 3]. Features include a |
− | Street India, which is using Sugar in an after-school program. They
| + | marked improvement in performance and lots of bug fixes. Tip of the hat to |
− | were blown away when I told them the history of the Simple Graph
| + | Devin Ulibarri, Edgar Quispe, and Euan Ong for their contributions to this |
− | program, one of their favorites. Then we went to JNU where I met with
| + | release. |
− | Dr. Ajith Kumar. Kumar works at the inter-university particle
| |
− | accelerator center, but is also the inventor of [http://expeyes.in ExpEyes], a
| |
− | peripheral device similar to Arduino (or Lego WeDo) but for more
| |
− | serious EE work (it has a signal generator and a buffer for doing
| |
− | precise sampling of signals). Of course, I could not resist writing a
| |
− | [[Activities/Turtle_Art/Plugins#Expeyes|Turtle Art plugin for his device]].
| |
− | | |
− | I also attended a seminar on Digital Literacy sponsored by the
| |
− | Hindustan Times, Intel, and Microsoft. The seminar itself was pretty
| |
− | depressing: a very paternalistic approach to providing government
| |
− | services to the masses. But I met a number of good people there whom I
| |
− | will be following up with.
| |
− | | |
− | Also in Delhi, I got a chance to see Manusheel Gupta, who had interned
| |
− | for me in the very early days of OLPC. It was very nice to catch up.
| |
− | | |
− | The next stop was Goa, where there is a small OLPC deployment. One of
| |
− | the highlights of the trip was finally meeting Salil Konkar, who has
| |
− | been maintaining the deployment on a volunteer basis. There are not
| |
− | enough laptops for each child to get their own, so before each class,
| |
− | a selected group of students retrieve then (XO 1.0s) from a charging
| |
− | station (designed at the Homi Bhabha Centre) for use in the class. The
| |
− | students, perhaps seven to eight years old, were using the Numbers
| |
− | activity that day, and although it was somewhat of a traditional class
| |
− | in format--desks in rows facing forward--they were actively engaged
| |
− | and helping each other. I had a prototype of XO Touch with me, so I
| |
− | did a small study with some of the kids to see how they took to it.
| |
− | (Although it is unfair to compare with the erratic touchpad of the
| |
− | first-generation XO 1.0s, it was nonetheless obvious that touch will
| |
− | make a big difference: the interface, which had been getting in the
| |
− | way was suddenly in background; all focus was on the math.)
| |
− | | |
− | Another highlight in Goa was the opportunity to meet Rita Paes, who
| |
− | directs the [http://www.nirmala-institute.com/ Nirmala Institute], a teacher-training college. I got a
| |
− | chance to talk to the students about Sugar (who welcomed me with a
| |
− | lovely ceremony) and with Rita about the potential for establishing a
| |
− | center of excellence for teacher training to support our efforts in
| |
− | India. I saw great potential. Rita also introduced Harriet and me to
| |
− | some locals who have interest in helping with the localization of
| |
− | Sugar into Konkani. It was interesting to me that some people write
| |
− | Konkani using [http://translate.sugarlabs.org/gom@latin/ Latin script], while others use [http://translate.sugarlabs.org/gom/ Devanagari script]. It is
| |
− | somewhat of a political issue, so Chris Leonard has enabled both
| |
− | communities to work in pootle.
| |
− | | |
− | From there, I went to the [http://www.unigoa.ac.in/department.php?adepid=10&mdepid=3 University of Goa], where I gave a
| |
− | lecture to the engineering students. The next evening, I gave a
| |
− | seminar on how to write a Sugar activity to about seventy students.
| |
− | Clearly there is some latent interest in the project. I also have a
| |
− | lecture at the local meeting of the ACM, which happened to coincide
| |
− | with my visit. Finally, I travelled an hour out of town to the
| |
− | [http://www.gim.ac.in Goa Institute of Management], a beautiful campus on a hill top, to talk
| |
− | to the students on the theme of "learning to change the world." We
| |
− | discussed strategies for making Sugar (and OLPC) take hold on the
| |
− | Peninsula. (See [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jj6awWWLoN0 Part 1],
| |
− | [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juaN4El1mC8 Part 2], and
| |
− | [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjcDTuqeBvk Part 3].)
| |
− | | |
− | From Goa I travelled to Mumbai, where I was hosted by the Homi Bhabha
| |
− | Centre for Science Education Tata Institute of Fundamental Research,
| |
− | specifically G Nagarjuna and his students at the [http://lab.gnowledge.org/ Gnowledge Lab].
| |
− | G's students are well versed in Sugar, having been active in
| |
− | supporting the OLPC deployment in [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_India/DBF/Khairat_Chronicle Khairat]. Their principal project
| |
− | is [http://metastudio.org metastudio.org], a peer-to-peer collaborative workspace that
| |
− | utilizes many semantic features. We discussed the possibility of
| |
− | folding some of their work into future School Server designs.
| |
− | Hopefully they will be able to participate (mostly likely on line) in
| |
− | the discussions at the [http://olpcsf.org/ SF summit].
| |
− | | |
− | From Mumbai, I visited two schools: a school for children with
| |
− | disabilities and the village school in Khairat. At the former, I
| |
− | discussed with the computer teacher the possibility of using Sugar
| |
− | instead of Microsoft Windows XP as a way to engage the children more
| |
− | directly. While Sugar is attractive from the learning perspective, one
| |
− | concern is that a good deal of the computer training is geared towards
| |
− | an exam that is based on mastery of Microsoft products, which is a hurdle
| |
− | the children must jump over in order to enter the job market. Of
| |
− | course, for most populations of learners, master one word processor
| |
− | means that one can quickly master any other, but it is still to be
| |
− | demonstrated that such a transfer would occur with this population.
| |
− | | |
− | At the school in Khairat, I got a chance to see what has sprouted from
| |
− | the seed that Carla Gomez Monroy planted four years ago. Khairat was
| |
− | one of the early OLPC deployments and, although the program has as yet
| |
− | to take off in India as a whole, this program is still going strong.
| |
− | Harriet and I were welcomed to the village with a traditional ceremony
| |
− | that included beautiful garlands of flowers. We sat with some of the
| |
− | mothers and preschool children, whom I immediately presented the XO
| |
− | Touch. The children took to it immediately. One child, using paint,
| |
− | [http://beta.metastudio.org/gstudio/resources/images/show/859/ kept looking at his finger for the ink]. But the real fun was visiting
| |
− | the classroom. The children took turns standing in front of the class
| |
− | to talk about their work: often drawing, custom-made memory games,
| |
− | writing (in both English and Marathi--they are completely fluid in
| |
− | switching between scripts on the XO keyboard), and Turtle Art. I got
| |
− | to watch as a child figured out how to scale his drawings in Turtle | |
− | Art. I got a chance to present to the class, so I thought I would
| |
− | engage them in something a bit different. Daniel Drake has written a
| |
− | yet-to-be-released activity that features some animated dance and
| |
− | exercise moves. I showed them some dances and they did not need
| |
− | prompting to follow along. But then I asked them to show me some of
| |
− | the local dance steps. I challenged them to make their own dance
| |
− | videos and coached them through the process using Turtle Art. They quickly grasped the concept behind the various media
| |
− | blocks (they had previously been using an old version of Turtle Art
| |
− | that did not yet have these features). Together we engaged in some
| |
− | "hard fun."
| |
− | | |
− | [[File:Dancedance.png|300px]]
| |
− | | |
− | My next stop was IIT Guwahati. I gave the keynote at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Techniche Techniche],
| |
− | the annual techno-management festival. Interestingly, as I was staying
| |
− | at the university guest house, I had a chance to interact with much of
| |
− | the staff, particularly in the kitchen (did I mention I love Indian
| |
− | food?). They were really taken with the XO and we discussed how we
| |
− | might get some for their children. As it turns out, the students at
| |
− | the IIT run a school for the children of the workers, so perhaps it is
| |
− | not out of the question.
| |
− | | |
− | I spent another 24 hours in Delhi. Harriet and I spent much of the day
| |
− | with Satyaakam Goswami and his students at JNU and members of the local FOSS community.
| |
− | In addition to being
| |
− | very active in helping to translate Sugar into Hindi, Satyaakam has
| |
− | been working in an urban school in [http://vinaychaddha.blogspot.in/2012/08/presentation-at-electronics-rocks-2012.html Nithari], using Raspberry PI. I
| |
− | visited the school and only have admiration for the teachers and
| |
− | students who seem to be thriving despite very difficult circumstances.
| |
− | As with the school for the disabled, much of the emphasis in the
| |
− | school is for the children to pass their exams, so in discussion with
| |
− | the teachers, we talked about trying to establish some
| |
− | extra-curricular activities for the children using Sugar.
| |
− | | |
− | India opened my eyes both to the possibilities and the challenges of
| |
− | Sugar and OLPC. Many thanks to Harriet for her support. And to the
| |
− | numerous volunteers I met who are trying to give the opportunity of
| |
− | learning to so many children.
| |
− | | |
− | 2. In response to feedback from [http://www.fundacionzt.org/ FZT], I released a new version of the [http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4555 Nutrition activity]. Also, in the spirit of eating my own dog food, as usual I gave my talks in India using Turtle Art. In the process, I uncovered some corner cases in some of the new features I had introduced in Version 154. [http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4027 Version 156] has some bug fixes.
| |
− | | |
− | 3. I just got the galley back from the publisher of a book I am writing (with Chuck Kane), [http://www.amazon.com/Learning-Change-World-Social-Impact/dp/0230337317 ''Learning to Change the World,''] about OLPC. I hope to do justice to the project.
| |
− | | |
− | === In the community ===
| |
− | | |
− | 4. There are plans to hold the next [http://olpcsf.org/ OLPC SF summit] in San Francisco the weekend of October 19-21. We are looking into organizing a Sugar Camp ''following'' the summit.

| + | Labs oversight board. (And thanks to everyone who voted for my return to the |
| + | board as well.) Our next meeting is on 3 November at 19UTC in the #sugar-meeting channel of irc.freenode.net. |
