We will be working to deploy Sugar through bootable USB devices - www.schoolkey.org
This Fall we are working with two schools in Boston
Fenway High School - This is a pilot school in Boston with a wide range of computers. We are working with the Future Engineers Club to try out idea and technology.
Shaw Elementary School - This school has one older computer lab and very little computer access for the students.
Next Steps at Fenway
The goal at the Fenway High School is to work with the tech-savy and motivated teens in the Future Engineers club to test using Sugar on USB in a school environment. Longer term, we'd like to use this as a model to get tech-savvy Teens testing, interacting and being ambassadors for Sugar in their school districts.
Current Status: Students have a SLAX distribution on a USB Key and a Boot-helper CD that allows them to boot from computers that are only set up to boot from CD
Next Goal: Get Sugar into their hands.
ToDo:
- Bootable Sugar on a USB Key - DONE
- Boot Helper CD for Fedora
- Test Sugar and get the worst of the bugs out of what we give to Fenway - Known Issues
- Does not Shutdown - Crucial for not corrupting the USB.
- Calculator doesn't work
- Write out instructions for how Fenway students can customize their Sugar and how to report issues.
- Add Activities
- Add Open Source software such a GIMP
- Report Issues - Probably just a wikipage on SugarLabs works for now, we are only talking about a few teens.
