Acoustic distance measurement applications
Ben and everybody, The multiple-click problem prevented me from trying the acoustic distance measurement activity for a while, but finally I could do it last night on 637. Thi is pretty cool! This reminds me of a story I heard from my boss and I thought you would be interested in it, too: --- The graph activity was by some Physics professors at Tufts University, including Ron Thornton (who has been a major figure in physics education via computers since the Apple II). He has lots of stuff online (but I couldn't find the specific reference for this work (ca. 1990). Basically, they found that a pre-test that would accurately predict the final grade was apptitude at reading graphs. Then they decided to try teaching some of their students how to read graphs -- and one of the main ways was to use a Polaroid camera range finder on the screen of the computer and the student using whole body movement back and forth to try to match different graphs on the screen: distance, velocity, acceleration, etc. They reported that this worked very well. We made a Hypercard version of this and tried it on children and teachers and found it worked very well. --- Basically, looking at a graph and acting as a component or derivative of the graph is a great way to improve physics sense and it results in a better grade. He thinks that using the whole body instead of just finger tips is a key. This would be a great match with Acoustic Measure. For this purpose, perhaps the interval of noise should be configurable and can be made shorter, and the read-out values should be able to be used by other things like a graph drawing/showing program. Also, have you thought about making an explanation for kids, perhaps in the form of an active essay? The current implementation is a bit like a magic, and I bet many kids who try it would say: it can measure the distance because they are 'talking' to each other or something like that based on the story mode of thinking when asked how it works. A kid-accessible scientific explanation would be very nice. Since the essence of the measurement should be very, very small (perhaps just one or lines, leaving all the details of binary sequence and speed of sound variation), that would be a quite fun reading for kids. Just my 2 yen. -- Yoshiki ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
Need account on dev.laptop.org
Hi all,
I need to add watch and listen to joyride per ticket
http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/5036.
According to the wiki i need shell access and this is the place to
request it.
1. Project name : Watch Listen
2. Existing website, if any : https://olpc-player.helixcommunity.org/
3. One-line description : Media Player based on Helix media engine
4. Longer description : Watch Listen is a media player that uses the
helix
: media engine. It supports a variety of audio,
video
: and image formats.
:
5. URLs of similar projects :
6. Committer list
Please list the maintainer (lead developer) as the first entry. Only list
developers who need to be given accounts so that they can commit to your
project's code repository, or push their own. There is no need to list
non-committer developers.
Username Full name SSH2 key URLE-mail
- --
#1 kreneskyp Peter Krenesky[EMAIL
PROTECTED]
#2
#3
...
If any developers don't have their SSH2 keys on the web, please attach them
to the application e-mail.
7. Preferred development model
[] Central tree. Every developer can push his changes directly to the
project's git tree. This is the standard model that will be familiar to
CVS and Subversion users, and that tends to work well for most projects.
[X] Maintainer-owned tree. Every developer creates his own git tree, or
multiple git trees. He periodically asks the maintainer to look at one
or more of these trees, and merge changes into the maintainer-owned,
main tree. This is the model used by the Linux kernel, and is
well-suited to projects wishing to maintain a tighter control on code
entering the main tree.
If you choose the maintainer-owned tree model, but wish to set up some
shared trees where all of your project's committers can commit directly,
as might be the case with a discussion tree, or a tree for an individual
feature, you may send us such a request by e-mail, and we will set up the
tree for you.
8. Set up a project mailing list:
[ ] Yes, named after our project name
[ ] Yes, named __
[X] No
When your project is just getting off the ground, we suggest you eschew
a separate mailing list and instead keep discussion about your project
on the main OLPC development list. This will give you more input and
potentially attract more developers to your project; when the volume of
messages related to your project reaches some critical mass, we can
trivially create a separate mailing list for you.
If you need multiple lists, let us know. We discourage having many
mailing lists for smaller projects, as this tends to
stunt the growth of your project community. You can always add more lists
later.
9. Commit notifications
[ ] Notification of commits to the main tree should be e-mailed to the list
we chose to create above
[ ] A separate mailing list, projectname-git, should be created for commit
notifications
[X] No commit notifications, please
10. Shell accounts
As a general rule, we don't provide shell accounts to developers unless
there's a demonstrated need. If you have one, please explain here, and
list the usernames of the committers above needing shell access.
kreneskyp - Shell access is required for adding packages to joyride.
11. Translation
[X] Set up the laptop.org Pootle server to allow translation commits to be
made
[ ] Translation arrangements have already been made at ___
per ticket #4593 translation commits will be handled manually.
12. Notes/comments:

Re: Acoustic distance measurement applications
Thanks. I have put your story in a Wiki page called Data Acquisition and Analysis for Children, where I am collecting material for a proposed book.
