This work was initially started by the Peru Local Lab to address the needs identified during work on Puno pilot program.

Summary

The major goal of Sugar Network is providing sufficient functionality to share various types of content between:

  • Students and teachers from off-line deployments;
  • Students, teachers from off-line deployments and people who support this particular deployment but are located far from the schools and can't visit them on regular basis;
  • Students, teachers from off-line deployments (with deployment supporters' help) and the rest of broader, on-line Sugar community.

The purpose of this sharing is:

  • Provide technical and educational support to students and teachers;
  • Support social activity of student and teachers creating the possibility of close integration with the learning process;
  • Connect students and teachers with the rest of Sugar community thereby enabling, for example, more direct feedback from the field or bootstrapping of localization by local language communities (with upstreaming to Pootle).

The goal will be accomplished by:

  • Providing a user interface on the Network participant side to read and write various types of content;
  • The regular activity in the Network will require connection to a server, to the global one (on-line case) or to a server located in schools (off-line case);
  • The limited functionality will be provided for server-less case, e.g., students are out of a school.

The Sugar Network should be useful for both kinds of environments, off-line and on-line.
