[IAEP] Peer tutoring initiatives
Good afternoon everyone, I am a learning consultant currently supporting OLPC deployments in Latin America. I am putting together a document regarding peer tutoring initiatives (available in both English and Spanish) and would like to include more examples from OLPC deployments around the world. If you are aware of advancements in this area, or know someone who might be, I would really appreciate hearing from you! Thank you in advance for your support, Jennifer ___ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!) IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep

Re: [IAEP] "Make Your Own Sugar Activities!" in Spanish
Thanks for setting this up John and James! I have begun to translate a little, but look forward to seeing the contributions of others who have more technical knowledge than I do. This will be a great resource for the Latin American deployments (and others).
