Our goal: To provide children around the world with new opportunities to explore, experiment and express themselves.

Any nation's most precious natural resource is its children. We believe the emerging world must leverage this resource by tapping into the children's innate capacities to learn, share, and create on their own. Our answer to that challenge is the XO laptop, a children's machine designed for “learning learning.”

Software development mailing list for OLPC. This list will split as topics reach volumes where independent lists become needed.

It is not intended for distribution-specific discussions, but of OLPC related software itself.

Sugar is the internal code name for everything users see. This includes the sharing and collaboration experience, base set of tasks, and the entire desktop stack. This mailing list is to discuss the design and the implementation of that effort. 2132 7956

"It's an education project."

Summary:

(1) Learning practice and theory need to evolve as technology evolves; we are discussing constructionist (and other learning theories) research and practice;

(2) We are engaging in an open dialog between the overlapping communities of software developers and educators;

(3) We are guiding Sugar software development, as it serves as a tangible structural underpinning for the application of 1 and 2 above; and

(4) We are examining and discussing Sugar's educational importance.
