I wouldn’t have known how use all the shortcuts such as change directory, delete, copy and other commands. Another useful function that I discovered while using Sugar is how to use the Journal. The journal keeps all the records of what activities we do on Sugar. I learnt how to rename, open and copy everything in the Journal. The final thing I learnt is how to use coordinates to create a picture for the Sugar logo. I learnt how to use the x and y coordinates to draw the points of the picture and use different shapes to draw them.<br /><br />Three things I enjoyed this semester<br /><br />An activity which I enjoyed most within Sugar was Turtle Art. Turtle Art was very fun because it was very easy for me to manipulate the scripts and make the turtle create a variety of different shapes. Another activity which I enjoyed within Sugar is Etoys. Etoys was fun because it was very hard and made me think a lot. It was very stressful but in the end I completed the tasks. The final activity that I enjoyed with Sugar was creating my own Sugar logo. Thinking of a picture and creating it was the fun part. Plotting all the points and coordinates was very boring because I was seeing numbers everywhere and it was very confusing.<br /><br />Three things I disliked this semester<br /><br />While working with Sugar, I didn’t like listening to the guest speakers because it was very long and boring. I didn’t want to take notes because I had to keep listening and typing notes. I also didn’t like using physics because it was very boring and there wasn’t anything new involved in it. I was very bored while working with physics because there weren’t many activities that I could do with it. The final thing that I disliked was writing blogs about everything we did. It was tough thinking of different ideas to write about and making the blogs sound good.<br /><br />3)<br /><br />The best thing that we have done this semester was playing with the activities inside of the Sugar operating system. There are many activities which you can play with and enjoy. You can download the activities from a sugar site and they’re completely free.<br /><br />The worst thing we did this semester was playing with Etoys. Etoys was very confusing because the scripts were differently named from the Scratch scripts. It was confusing to do the difficult activities with Etoys because the scripts were differently named and it was hard to locate the correct scripts to use for the activities. But in the end, I completed all the tasks after a long search for the scripts.<br /><br />The most interesting thing that we did this semester was playing with Turtle Art. Turtle Art was interesting because we had to create a shape using scripts. We had to use the scripts to move the turtle in different directions at different distances. It was very mathematical and we had to use our brain.<br /><br />The most difficult activity we did this semester was re-doing all out scratch challenges. Even though scratch has easy scripts to read and use, it was still hard to create different challenges we were told to do. The challenges were very hard and we had to think a lot to create them with scripts.<br /><br />4)<br /><br />I think the XO or OLPC is a good idea to be sent out to children because it has many features for children to use and learn from. The Sugar operating system has many functions and there are many simple activities already on the system for the children. The activities are also very simple and have easy to use tools. There are some difficult activities to use but the children would eventually know how to use it after they’ve played with it for a while.asian-bruce-leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12138359045701629853noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323453790587237898.post-74325303213076218962009-11-04T12:41:00.004+10:302009-11-09T19:33:36.783+10:30Tux Paint ActivityDuring our control technology lesson on Wednesday, we had to play around with a lot of activities on Sugar and make a blog from one of them. The activity I played around with was called the Tux Paint.<br /><div><div align="left"><br />Here is a screen shot of my activity. </div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_gydORF1YsXo/SvZtQKvH_VI/AAAAAAAAAEk/R3X4WaaNFRA/s1600-h/Tuts+Paint.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_gydORF1YsXo/SvZtQKvH_VI/AAAAAAAAAEk/R3X4WaaNFRA/s320/Tuts+Paint.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401624927604833618" border="0" /></a><br /><div align="left">Rating: 4/5<br /><br />Tux Paint is a very good painting activity because it has a lot of brush presets and it also has the erase button, which the other paint program didn’t have. This program has a stamp tool which you can use to stamp down some preset pictures of animals and other objects. The brush tool has many presets and you can draw lines with many shapes and pictures.<br /><br />This program also has the undo button, which is very useful for mistakes. Unlike the other paint activity, this activity has many useful features for the people who love drawing.<br /><br />I would recommend this activity to people of 10 years and over because it’s a bit complex with all the tools. There are many different simple features for the people to give them what they need to draw.<br /><br />The good points about this activity are that it has a lot of simple and easy features for everyone to use. The activity also has a good layout for the tools. It’s correctly sorted and easy for people to search and use. The activity also has a variety of colours for the users to choose from.<br /><br />The bad points about this activity are that even though it has a variety of colours, you still can’t choose different colours between normal colours. You have certain colours which the activity already has but you may want other different colours in between them, such as a light red colour instead of a normal red.<br /><br />The interesting features of this activity that I had discovered were the tools that it consists of. I tried the stamp tool, which had many different pictures that I could have put onto my drawings. I was trying to put many pictures such as animals and create a cool looking picture out of them. The only thing I couldn’t do properly with the pictures is rotate them.<br /><br />You can’t really learn anything from this activity because all you’re doing is using your own knowledge to draw the pictures you want. The things that you could learn from this activity is learning how to use brushes differently and applying other tools to create a work of art. </div></div>asian-bruce-leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12138359045701629853noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323453790587237898.post-6311928589205940522009-11-02T21:07:00.004+10:302009-11-02T21:23:57.543+10:30Etoys activity<div style="text-align: center;">During our control technology lessons, we had to use the activity called Etoys to create animations.

The cars are moving at random speeds which would make the race fair. The closer the car is to the middle, the lower it's speed would be because it has a less distance to travel.</div><div><br /></div><div>The cars would travel straight along the road until the tip of the car hits one of the other colours on the track.</div><div><br /></div><div>My cars have a round circle on the tip of them so that when the tip touches the other roads, it would turn back to it's own road.</div><div><br /></div><div>I also have a timer on the activity. The timer shows how long a car takes to finish and win the race. Once the car finishes the race at the grey line, then the clock would stop and show the time the car took to finish.</div><div><br /></div><div>I created a start, stop and restart button for easy use for my race. It's much easier to stop and reset the cars into their own positions, then moving them one by one.</div><div><br /></div><div>The problems which I had in this activity was creating the track. I had to create a track big enough for the cars to fit on and drive around. This problem took me quite a while to solve because I couldn't get the right size for the cars. In the end, I ended up using a basic shape tool to create a simple track.</div><div><br /></div><div>I also had trouble on my start button, but my teacher helped me solve it. The problem I had with it was because I didn't change the button to activate when I clicked it.</div>asian-bruce-leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12138359045701629853noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323453790587237898.post-54204334854507362382009-09-23T12:14:00.006+09:302009-09-23T12:23:55.577+09:30Turtle ArtDuring a few weeks of our Control technology lessons, we have been making shapes on an activity called Turtle Art. This activity has many features to create different shapes in many different sizes.<br /><br /><div align="center">Here is an example of a shape which I created.<br /></div><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384489063357818770" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 272px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 264px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gydORF1YsXo/SrmMRl5rJ5I/AAAAAAAAAD0/c3OGCWqwzfQ/s320/shape+31+variable.jpg" border="0" /><br /></div><div align="left">While creating this shape, I was inspired by it because it looked easy.

One of the things we learnt to do is to change the icon of the Sugar.<br /><br /><div align="center">Here is a screenshot of my icon.<br /></div><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377479434007290050" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 94px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 91px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gydORF1YsXo/SqClDdr5IMI/AAAAAAAAADc/CXvQHIa3vA4/s320/My+Icon.PNG" border="0" /></div>Changing the icon involves using the html-kit or notepad. You have to first draw it on graph paper and then plot the coordinates.<br /><br />After finishing my icon, I had a lot of trouble replacing it onto the Sugar icon because I mispelt the word ' color ' and named it ' colour ' instead. The Sugar recognises the American words and thought the colour as an error.<br /><br />This made me stress a lot because I could never get it working. After our teacher took it home and tried it himself, he worked out that I had mispelt the word color.<br /></div><div>Here is a screenshot of my Sugar homepage with my icon and all the activities around it.</div><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377479785637152850" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 286px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gydORF1YsXo/SqClX7m_CFI/AAAAAAAAADk/bnDyfb_wSks/s320/My+Icon+%2B+Activities.PNG" border="0" /></div>asian-bruce-leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12138359045701629853noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323453790587237898.post-85808228331628840792009-08-14T14:28:00.005+09:302009-08-14T14:37:23.386+09:30Physics GameOn the Fridays of our Control Technology lesson, we were making games to play with on the Physics activity. Our goal was to create a game which we were able to play and have fun with.<br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gydORF1YsXo/SoTv1n7uapI/AAAAAAAAADM/G8cL_v0_d88/s1600-h/Screenshot.png"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369680360264067730" style="WIDTH: 326px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 269px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gydORF1YsXo/SoTv1n7uapI/AAAAAAAAADM/G8cL_v0_d88/s320/Screenshot.png" border="0" /></a><br /><br />The aim of the game is to draw a ball at the top of the screen and then hope it drops into one of goals at the bottom. There are three goals and each are worth either one, two or three points.<br /><br />The sticks and triangles in the middle of the screenshot are obstacles which rotate and spin to toss the ball around the screen.<br /><br />The game depends on luck and you can't control your ball. It is cool to see the ball get tossed around by the spinning obstacles.<br /><br />The people who worked in this group to develop this game are: asian-bruce-lee, control-tech-sama and bongbong123.asian-bruce-leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12138359045701629853noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323453790587237898.post-62979249717154272472009-08-06T15:37:00.013+09:302009-08-06T18:47:11.792+09:30Joel Stanley Guest Speaker<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">During our control technology lesson on Wednesday, the 5th of August, Joel Stanley came into our class as a guest.

To play the game, you have to click one of the number '1' on the top and then click one of the number '2' at the bottom. The number 1's have maths problems and the number 2's have the answers.<br /><br />This game is very fun because it's confusing and makes you think a lot. You can change what's hidden behind the cards. Some of the additional changes are addition, letters and sounds. You can also change the amount of cards on the screen. There are 4x4, 5x5 and 6x6 options. 6x6 is the hardest and 4x4 is the easiest.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Here is a screen shot of the memorize activity.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_gydORF1YsXo/SnKAr_lwZbI/AAAAAAAAACE/3cO6xQeKoZE/s1600-h/tmpKxEMb_.png"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 247px; height: 185px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_gydORF1YsXo/SnKAr_lwZbI/AAAAAAAAACE/3cO6xQeKoZE/s200/tmpKxEMb_.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364491599444207026" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">I rule !!! =D</div>asian-bruce-leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12138359045701629853noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323453790587237898.post-5703739487690513112009-07-30T22:13:00.001+09:302009-07-31T20:57:24.183+09:30Physics ActivityDuring our lesson today, I was testing the functions of the Physics activity in the Sugar Operating System. This activity is very creative and you are able to do many things with it such as creating a fun game where you and your friends can play.<br /><br />I really enjoyed this activity because I could create so much games with the different functions. Some of the functions are: move, grab, drag, draw, place, motor, pin, joint, play and pause objects if you don't want the objects to move.<br /><br />I hope many other users who use this operating system can find this activity fun and play games with their friends.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Here is an example of myself playing with Physics.<br /><br /></div><div

we had guest speakers in our control technology class. They were Rosemary and David. Rosemary was the speaker and David was the helper. They explained about their journey in Timorleste and how the XO was helping the country. They also explained about the social issues about the country.</span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-indent: 36pt;"><br /><span style=""><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style=""><span style=""> </span>The first issue they explained to us was about that Timorleste was once a Portugal country but then Portugal left. After that in 1975 Indonesia took over Timorleste and then they pulled out at 1999. There is a port at the bay where all the goods and supplies come in on ships. The world has now nationalised a language for Timorleste. Portugal is a common language in Timorleste but there is also the local language which is Tetun. The word ‘Mallai’ means ‘white people’ in Tetun.</span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /><span style=""><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style=""><span style=""> </span>The tourism in Timorleste is undeveloped because they don’t have much tourist sites and most of the sites are small. The Australian Army and the United Nations are stationed in Timorleste to keep peace. The guest speakers were staying with missionaries from Brazil. The Brazilians know the Portuguese language which makes it easier for them to be able to communicate. Deanne, one of the missionaries, was working in a village 20 minutes away from where they were staying. They had a project to collect water from mountains, so that the women didn’t have to go up there and gather the water. <span style=""> </span>The Brazilian missionaries were sent by churches at Brazil.<br /></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /><span style=""><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style=""><span style=""> </span>Mina, who is another missionary, works with children in the morning and afternoons. In Timorleste, school is not compulsory, so a lot of children don’t go to school. The missionaries from Brazil have two children. One of them is an 8 year old boy and the other is a 5 year old girl. The children know three languages: English, Portuguese and Tetun. A lot of the people have no exposure to English, so it’s hard to communicate between foreigner and the locals.<br /></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /><span style=""><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style=""><span style=""> </span>Almost everyone in Timorleste have a scooter. The scooter costs $2.50 U.S dollars to fill up. The currency for Timorleste is U.S dollars because they currently do not have a currency. It is very expensive to fill up the scooters. The country is still improving and developing.<br /></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /><span style=""><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style=""><span style=""> </span>When Rosemary drove past children who were walking to school, she saw the children carrying a 32 page exercise book and a pen. They didn’t have any other stationery with them.<br /></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /><span style=""><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style=""><span style=""> </span>In 2006, there was a terrible outbreak in Timorleste. The people were fighting against each other and the police was also fighting with the army.</span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /><span style=""><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style=""><span style=""> </span>The housing in Timorleste is really bad. They live in huts and there is no flooring, heating/cooling and electricity. There is a project which is called the ‘IT Engeo-forum’. This project is made to send out broadband connection to other places in the country. They set up routers which connect to other routers. These resources are helpful because foreigners want to contact home and check resources on the internet.</span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /><span style=""><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style=""><span style=""> </span>David teaches the locals how to program phones on the internet. There are 23 people in his class who volunteered to join and learn. The XO has eBooks where you are able to download books from the internet without buying them. The XO is waterproof and has a low power usage. Rosemary and David met up with Syntus, a person who interprets for the Australian Army and 2 other representatives for schools around Timorleste. The missionaries have to teach the teachers how to use the XO before they can teach students.<br /></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /><span style=""><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style=""><span style=""> </span>The churches in Timorleste look like warehouses. The church was open on Sunday and 80-90 people would be there. Syntus was a translator at the church.

It’s a bit slow but because it’s such a small subnetbook, it wouldn’t have much speed. Many features in this operating system are fun and may help children learn many things.<br /><br />This operating system is different from the other ones which are official but it still good features. The system is a bit difficult to navigate for young children but once they get the hang of it, it should be a breeze.<br /><br />Although the Sugar operating system is good, it only has a simple layout which is created for children to use.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gydORF1YsXo/SmlCNN2ldFI/AAAAAAAAAAM/qLdw-UQVJFM/s1600-h/220px-XO-Beta1-mikemcgregor-2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5361889626185626706" style="width: 220px; height: 203px;" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gydORF1YsXo/SmlCNN2ldFI/AAAAAAAAAAM/qLdw-UQVJFM/s320/220px-XO-Beta1-mikemcgregor-2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></div><div style="text-align: center;">This is a picture of the XO subnetbook.</div>asian-bruce-leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12138359045701629853noreply@blogger.com1
