I hope you are working up a very detailed, "Grannie's Guide-No Fail" style set of teachers' instructions so that other (non-techie) teachers who don't have you there to help can replicate the things you are doing with the students. <p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; min-height: 14px;"> I love the way you document everything with the TODOs included. Excellent! <p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; min-height: 14px;"> The note from Laura Johns is very encouraging. I guess it dispels 2 myths: <p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; min-height: 14px;"> 1) There aren't many Power PC Macs left in the schools <p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; min-height: 14px;"> 2) SoaS won't run on a Power PC Mac. <p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; min-height: 14px;"> It looks like we finally may have someone who can make it work. Wouldn't it be great if it were ready to go by the CUE Conference in March 2010? <p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; min-height: 14px;"> They have asked me to apply to do another 1 hour session at CUE 2010. I have to apply by early September. It is really hard to come up with something flexible and generic enough to adjust to match the rapidly changing and developing things going on with OLPC and SugarLabs. I am open to suggestions. </div></blockquote><div> Hi Caryl, We have an application in for one session and they want a second session? What did we put down for the first one? We are using Turtle Art a lot this summer so maybe a Turtle Art specific session. Turtle Art for math, social studies and ePortfolios. </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><div> <p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; min-height: 14px;"> Caryl <p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; min-height: 14px;"> P.S. For the branded USB sticks...is the type you are ordering retractable? Does it have a good loop to attach to a keychain or lanyard? If so, count me in for 10. <div> </div></div> _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!) <a href="mailto:IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org">IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org</a> <a href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep" target="_blank">http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep</a> </blockquote></div> -- Caroline Meeks Solution Grove Caroline@SolutionGrove.com 617-500-3488 - Office 505-213-3268 - Fax
