The teacher<br> sends an email with an attachment. The children download it with gmail<br> at the school and store the attachment in the Journal. Then they take<br> it home, work on it, and when they return to school they send their<br> work to the teacher using gmail again.<br> <br> An email activity with replication or however it is called (making a<br> local copy of the emails and synchronizing automatically with the<br> server whenever there is connectivity), would be very useful so they<br> are not limited to attachments only.<br> <br> Regards,<br> <font color="#888888"><br> Gabriel<br> </font><div><div></div><div>_______________________________________________<br> Sugar-devel mailing list<br> <a href="mailto:Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org</a><br> <a href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel" target="_blank">http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel</a><br> </div></div></blockquote></div><br> </div></div><br>_______________________________________________<br> Sugar-devel mailing list<br> <a href="mailto:Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org">Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org</a><br> <a href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel" target="_blank">http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel</a><br> <br></blockquote></div><br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Caroline Meeks<br>Solution Grove<br>Caroline@SolutionGrove.com<br><br>617-500-3488 - Office<br>505-213-3268 - Fax<br>
