[Sugar-devel] A simple way for teachers to review children works

[lionel at olpc-france.org]

Hi all,

 

One of the main feedback from teachers in our small XO deployment at
Saint-Denis (a poor suburb of Paris) is related to children works review.

The teacher would like a way to control and review works of children. 

 

Generally they ask to children to write a text or something else and they
want a way to check if children have completed the work.

They try to use an USB key but it’s too long (about fifteen minutes at
least). More, because we’ve got only 25 XO for 50 children, two children
share the same XO and there is a risk that a child delete the work of the
previous one (it already happens).

I don’t know if it could help here but we don’t have a XS server installed.
BTW to be honest, I’m afraid than if we have one teachers don’t have
knowledge to use it.

 

Because each XO has an Internet connection, we are thinking to develop a
small activity to allow children to upload their works to a web server where
teachers could retrieve it.

-          Do you know how other deployments handle teachers review ?

-          Does the XS could be a solution to this problem ?

-          Is there any existing activity matching the idea to upload
content to a web server ?

 

Any advice is welcome.

 

Best regards from France.

 

                Lionel.
