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.
+
suggestions for bite-sized tasks in coding, documentation, research, design,
 +
and outreach. We'll also be scouring the open issues in the various
 +
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,
  −
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.

3. Congratulations to Lionel, Sameer, and Adam for being re-elected to the Sugar
 +
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.
