<div dir="ltr"> Subject : Reply to Message 6, Vol 125, Issue 43. Dear Sir, Thank you for acknowledging my idea. You are absolutely right. The "they are cheating button" will not only serve the purpose of someone writing the text but also if someone speaking it up in the public. I'm up for this task. Could you please help me with some of the game repositories(python) so that I can get an edge before submitting the final proposal?

My name is Rohit Rao and I am currently in my year final year of engineering in Computer Science from NSIT. I want to work with SugarLabs for GSOC 2019. I am interested in the project titled "Export Music Blocks code to JavaScript". I had a question - Is there any development environment that I need to set up before I can start working on the project or can I just start working on it directly? Thank You *Rohit Rao* -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The game will be called the "Guess the Word". How the game works : Each of the student will get their turn to draw something on their screen. The screen will contain a word at the top, which you have to draw and others to guess. Rest of them will look at the ongoing drawing on their respective screen to guess what is being drawn. Say a student is making the drawing of an orange, ones who guess it right are scored according to the time taken (Bonuses who gets the fastest :P). Moreover, the one who is drawing will also be scored on the basis of total right guesses made by the others. So after say 5 rounds of the game the cumulative sum of your drawing and guessing the right answer will tell the winner. Motto of the game : Group playing, interaction with other students, artistic skills, vocabulary build up etc. Technology required for the fluency of the game : It may happen that students, instead of making a drawing write the word on the screen. This will be taken care by optical character recognition(ML). Student will be disqualified or his score will be deducted for doing this. Designing and other stuffs as required. I work with python and even worked with ML and other frameworks. However I m still learning how to use Python with sugar activities. I already went through your site to look for the material so that I can get a kickstart before the start of the project. I m just loving it how you guys took an advantage of technology for educating children. Really very excited to showcase my skills and be a part of this venture. This is just a short proposal of something which I want to pursue as my summer project for the GSOC 2019. Any advancements/queries are most welcome.

You must test your changes, so you will need an environment of some sort. Your experience in JavaScript environments may help you understand the options. The development environment can be whatever works for you. Minimum is git, text editor, and several web browsers with consoles. You can find many different text editors, some with helpful features and integration with git. You can also add a server, in order to differentiate problems between local file access and access over HTTP. <a href="https://github.com/sugarlabs/musicblocks/blob/master/Debugging.md" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/sugarlabs/musicblocks/blob/master/Debugging.md</a> may be of interest.

General advice; learn more about the source code, the tools, and the process to make changes. Read the successful pull requests on GitHub. Get an idea of what the coding mentors look for in contributions.

I like 95% of the idea. Well done. However, the optical character recognition machine learning component will have problems; * there may not be enough processor power to run the model quick enough, or battery may decline quickly when using activity, * the model would need local training, and as there are no other handwriting activities the training must come from this activity alone, * there would have to be a "they are cheating" button to mark a drawing as writing, otherwise the training could not happen, * some drawings may false positive, * it is not an essential part of the activity; children are very good at detecting attempts to cheat, * prevents the activity from being used for competition writing of letters and words instead, It may be enough to have a "they are cheating" button with the activity taking votes into account. What do you think?
