G'day, A nearby outback family visited me. The kids played on the XO-1.5's with os205 ... and I asked them to tell me anything that goes wrong.
1. male, age 5, - caused Speak text entry widget to display history as a result of an accidental click, the history took up the entire screen, but child could not figure out how to get out of the history, typing text did nothing ... escape key did it, or click on the widget input area, - lost in Turtle Art, could not find stop button, ... needed to switch tabs first, - InfoSlicer, not clear how to proceed, not age appropriate, needed again to be shown how to use Stop, - TamTamMini, was able to generate excessive audio to cause crackling in speakers. 2. female, age 7-8, - could not exit the Scratch activity, no stop button, ... needed to be shown how to use File/Quit, - Speak in robot interactive mode, stopped responding to input, "8" was the input, ... needed to be shown how to move on and type something else, - Speak, wanted to make it sound like a girl but could not figure out how. 3. male, age 10, - convinced Speak in robot mode to continuously utter speech, but we've no idea how he did it. While the above are negative points, the laptops did keep the kids entertained for a couple of hours, so there must be some positives there. ;-) -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ _______________________________________________ Testing mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/testing
