[Sugar-devel] Idea de GSoC: Revolución Pacíf ica.
Hola amigos. Aquí nuevamente. Estoy presentando una Idea al GSoC. Aquí esta: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Summer_of_Code/2010/_Revolution La idea es hacer una actividad para enseñar a leer a los niños de edades entre 0 a 4 años. Está basada en el método Glenn Doman (1) que trata de algunas metodologías de enseñanza pre escolar para que los niños desarrollen sus habilidades lo mas antes posible, sus estudios surgieron luego de tratar paralisis mentales en adultos descubriendo nuevas formas de disminuir esos efectos. Existen bit y mucho material con respecto a este tema. bien utilizado es bien beneficioso en youtube se pueden ver muchos casos (2). La idea es tener una actividad en las OLCP X 1.0 o 1.5 que pueda ser aprovechada por los hermanos menores de los niños que la tienen en casa en extender el ecosistema de Sugar a la familia. Bueno espero pasar el invierno probando esto con algunos hijos de mis amigos y en el colegio donde hice mis pruebas de usabilidad puesto que hay niños que no aprenden a leer hasta los 8 años ya son problemas de casa y otras cosas mas.

[Sugar-devel] idea for GSoC project
I earlier advocated a framework called Karma for integrating flash swfs into Sugar. I now believe that javascript + html5 is a much better bet because it better adheres to our common belief in open-source and allows View Source. Also, there are far more javascript developers out there than flash developers. This new rework of Karma could take advantage of projects like jquery-UI and new javascript animation libraries like processing.js and GX. The GSoC mentee could recreate one of OLE Nepal's existing flash activity with javascript + html5. You can access some of our flash activities here: http://www.pustakalaya.org/external-content/static/epaath/E-Paath-2.activity/activity/Activity/MenuStage.html I have in mind that the GSoC participant would create this proof of concept activity w/ the following features: 1. Embedded Audio and animation, possibly using the new video and audio tags in html5 2. Has help menus, navigation, and embedded lesson plan 3. Works in a regular browser w/ a limited set of functionality 4. Works in sugar natively and takes advantage of Sugar's collaboration features I think it is really key that developers should be able to create basic learning activities that can run anywhere but can easily be extended to take advantage of Sugar's collaboration features and UI. However, creating javascript-to-dbus bindings may be out-of-scope for a summer project. I am definitely be interested in serving as a mentor for such a project. That said I am professionally a project manager and not a software engineer. In fact, my software development skills are extremely limited beyond writing broken python and bash scripts. -- Bryan W.

Re: [Sugar-devel] idea for GSoC project
my pleasure! I think it is really key that there be a framework for developers to create learning activities that run on any modern browser but run better and do more interesting things when part of Sugar.

Re: [Sugar-devel] idea for gsoc 2009
Hey Divya, I guess your email fell through the cracks. Sorry about that. We would welcome you to apply for GSoC this year, assuming we get in. We'll know about that in about 4 hours. Meanwhile, you can look at our ideas list: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/DevelopmentTeam/ProjectIdeas Good luck, Jameson 2009/3/1 Divya divya...@gmail.com Hello I am into python development for last two and half years and looking forward to participate in gsoc 2009. I successfully participated in gsoc 2008 under GNU Project developed gnome-gnowserhttp://code.google.com/soc/2008/gnu/appinfo.html?csaid=F834885142E69883. I used PyGTK pydot for the development of gnome-gnowser and currently I am in the process of porting my application i.e gnome-gnowser onto OLPC. Finding that I posses all the required skill sets to be sugar developer, I look forward to it. So can anyone guide on that as where to start from and if there is already any Ideas list of sugar-labs for gsoc 2009. http://code.google.com/soc/2008/gnu/appinfo.html?csaid=F834885142E69883 -- Regards Divya ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

I'm going to link this thread from the ideas page, so I wanted to copy from the other thread: On Wed, Mar 18, 2009 at 4:14 AM, Bryan Berry br...@olenepal.org wrote: [Javascript+html5 dev tools] don't compare [with Flash] currently but they are developing rapidly, particularly aptana http://www.aptana.com. The great thing about aptana is that there is for-profit company behind it that seems to do a good job of sponsoring open-source development. Also, Apple, Palm, and maybe Android are pushing for js+html5 for all apps place of flash. On Wed, Mar 18, 2009 Jameson Quinn jameson.qu...@gmail.com wrote: I think that for a GSoC project, we care less about development kits/IDEs like aptana, than about desktop-apps-with-AJAX solutions like Appcelerator Titanium, Mozilla Prism (and in closed-source world, Adobe AIR and Curl). I think it would be a great project to take Titanium or Prism and make a generic sugar-like hello-world which used Javascript to save to the journal, set some tags, open a file, coexist with Rainbow, and have a sugary toolbar. Whether you worked on that activity with Aptana or whatever is a separate issue. Disclaimer: I know nothing under the hood about any of the products mentioned here, so I could be totally wrong.
