Hi Ham! Thanks for this! I hope you are settling in your new role in the family business. I'm so glad we finally met! How are things with you?
By the way, is this document available in the wiki already? Does it have hardware dependencies to our own XS infrastructure set-up? If not, can this be put on the wiki? I think our plan was to push for XS and Moodle on the second half of the deployment. We'll give the teachers at least 5 months to just get used to using the default Sugar activities or what other additional activities they see that they could apply for their use. We would, at the very least need the XS to log-in all the serial numbers of the XOs on the onset of deployment. We'll check in with the teachers after the adjustment period to see if they'd like to proceed to using Moodle. By all indications they are at least very excited to use the assessment portion of Moodle (making their own quizzes and randomizing the answers and questions) and seeing the feedback. Based on the teachers' reactions and what we talked about during the training, Moodle and lesson creation may be a bit too much too soon for them to do in the beginning of the deployment. They expressed the ease of use of Write, Etoys (book and paint objects), Record (cut and paste of pictures to Write and Etoys) and Memorize, Chat and Speak. Online Browse is still in question. I'm copying Lloyd on this email to see if we can in fact at least run the XS in the background with adequate wifi/internet support. Thanks again Ham!
