Karma Lessons -- Subset of an Activity

The name "activity" in the Sugar context roughly refers to a program with the following attributes:

  • It can be launched from the Activity Circle or journal
  • Is installed through an XO bundle and can be removed with the "minus" icon

In contrast, a Karma "Lesson" is much more granular than a Sugar Activity. A bunch of related of Karma lessons will be aggregated into a single Sugar Activity. Karma lesson are small, discrete learning units, that introduce important concepts and give the student an opportunity to work with those concepts. Additionally, a lesson plan and Teachers' Note should be included in each Karma Lesson. These documents help the instructor facilitate the lesson, whether in formal or informal settings.

A Karma Lesson consists of 5 sections

  1. Introduction
  2. Reading
  3. Game (optional)
  4. Exercise
  5. Summary
