This recommendation shares a common feature of Sugar Labs projects -
complexity. <br>
<br>
The primary goal of any change to the Sugar Labs website should
start with making Sugar available on a wide range <br>
of platforms, and then documenting that capability so that
prospective nontechnical users can make Sugar available in their
computing environment.<br>
<br></div></blockquote><div>+1, that's what the new proposed site is all about.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
The second priority is expressed in:<br>
<br>
Lesson plans (eg, <a href="https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Talk:EduJAM/2011" target="_blank">how to get a
microscope working with an XO</a>, <a href="https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Math4Team/Resources/Curriculum_Chart" target="_blank">4th
grade curriculum lessons</a>)<br>
<br>
So far in my experience lesson plans are of very limited value.
However, descriptions of how Sugar can be used constructively to
extend a learner's knowledge is certainly a priority in showing how
to make Sugar more valuable to its users. The books The XO Laptop in
the Classroom by Sdenka Z. Salas-Pilco, Physics with XO by Guzman
Trinidad, and Make Your Own Sugar Activities by James Simmons et al
should certainly be featured. <br>
<br>
The educational value of Sugar is greatly extended by access to a
school server (e.g. Khan Academy Lite, PhET simulations, ASLO
library of Sugar activities, Project Gutenberg books, Wikipedia) in
the normal case where internet is not available. Sugar Labs would be
wise to embrace the use of school servers. The XSCE community
provides installable versions for a wide variety of platforms. <br><span class="gmail-HOEnZb"><font color="#888888">

<div>Sorry for late reply. I was interested in Sugarizer
Dashboard but figured it required some API fixes which I
think doesn't fit my skills. I am more focused on
frontend development. Thus, I am interrested in the idea
titled "<b>Giving Sugar Labs Website a New Look</b>".
Please can you guide me with how to get contributing to
the same.</div>
