      Etoys is quite smooth as it is, but I wonder if it is practical to have Etoys spawn extra threads so that interfaces users create work smoothly even when they build a demanding application.
  • he HTML5 specification also inherently includes touch and multitouch capabilities, says Huckaby. The jQuery Mobile Web framework supports touch events in JavaScript-using websites via an API.

[Grassroots-l] [support-gang] Change the World (FAST!) - 1 views

  • > He needed (would still appreciate it) 30 XOs for one primary school class, > calculated everything using prices from G1G1. This is a good example, thank you... I will follow up off list; but you are right, this is the sort of project we are not supporting outside of G1G1.

    By not supporting medium-sized deployments of, say 30 to 5000 laptops (a typical order from a school or a county-level authority) the OLPC Foundation betrays an instinct for paternalism. We have too much paternalism in education already, and the technologies in Sugar were designed to give children democratic access to education.

      I am delighted that the fantastic Sugar project is available to countries that don't have the top-down education system that is necessary to buy the XO.

    "It's an education project." Summary: (1) Learning practice and theory need to evolve as technology evolves; we are discussing constructionist (and other learning theories) research and practice; (2) We are engaging in an open dialog between the overlapping communities of software developers and educators; (3) We are guiding Sugar software development, as it serves as a tangible structural underpinning for the application of 1 and 2 above; and (4) We are examining and discussing Sugar's educational importance.
