My problem is: How to allow only the teachers to customize the list words,
and deny this feature to the regulars students?
I use the FileChooserWidget for select a file with the new list, but is not
a good idea that a child can do it.

Emiliano has Arduino + TA working, I think. Needs to be reworked as a
plugin in the new TA plugins model (which seems excellent).
Yes, it's working. We don't know if we're going to use them, but I plan to
create
a plugin anyway.
On the Uy/Ceibal side, I really want to know which Arduino they

I am very interested in this functionality and that of using WeDo Robots.
Would this be available for the XOs? Both versions or only the XO 1.5?
How would that work?
Thanks.

Martin,
Thanks. This is all really exciting.
I am really looking forward to connecting the XOs to probes, robots, etc. so
that the students can experience manipulating physical and digital objects.

Hey All,
I'm the previously mentioned Olin student working on TA / WeDo integration.
Right now, I have a full-function python driver for the WeDo and an early
draft for a Turtle Art plugin.
I will be releasing a public beta via my github page,
https://github.com/itdaniher/WeDoMore, on Mar18.
Hi Ian!
great to have you around! I am interested in your work with WeDo, both
the python plugin, and the TA integration.
For the NXT integration, the parts are
1 - an rpm that has the udev rules
2 - an rpm with nxt_python (python library, some utilities)
3 - a TA plugin

Note that Class 8 does not exist (except fakes) and class 10 is
usually not faster than class 6 if you run ext3 on it.
Also, a Sandisk card is usually faster than a card from

Also make sure that the partition
is aligned to 4 MB, otherwise you waste half the performance
and expected life.
I do this for every SD card onto which I myself write the partition table.
But I think the .zd files re-write the WHOLE SD card (including its
partition table). If that is true,

Good. You must test again if you change cards, by the way.

Push escape while the startup sound is playing. If you get an ok prompt,
your XO is not developer locked. If you don't, it is.

A year ago, we deployed about 200 XO-1.1 machines in a community. I'm
not sure if that version number is official, but it's what we call
XO-1s with XO-1.5 style capacitive trackpads.

the latest OS build. I only have the standard
