<div dir="ltr">Hi I've posted more of the first draft of the SudoKit learning box.<br>It is intended to be a collaborative project, with an emphasis on making stuff fun and cool to irreverent teens and weird adults<br><br><a href="https://sudoroom.org/wiki/SudoKit#First_Draft">https://sudoroom.org/wiki/SudoKit#First_Draft</a><br><br><h2><span class="" id="SudoKits">SudoKits</span></h2>
<h3><span class="" id="First_Draft">First Draft</span></h3>
<p>Small animals, kids, and adults start out holding a pretty box full
of SudoKit stuff.
It holds learning placemats, shadowbox tool placemats, and small useful
charms like an hourglass to measure time spent offline while learning
stuff (internet addiction is a big problem)

<ul><li> Material SudoKit keeps people from spending too much time in an abstract, social media world while at the SudoRoom
</li><li> Touching and holding things is important for learning, especially for folks who don't enjoy book learning.
</li><li> It's debatable whether people have skills in learning in some ways
but hackerpsaces emphasize learning by doing, and having a set of things
to touch and hold is proven to work with other inspiring projects
</li><li> Various members can contribute and will have fun recycling stuff and creating beautiful learning kits - this is extensible
</li></ul>
<h4><span class="" id="Placemats">Placemats</span></h4>
<p>There are multiple sets of these and placed inside the sudokit.
people take them out and put them down at a tablespace. the idea is that
they don't have to deal with the "blank page" problem when first
walking into SudoRoom. there is a starting point.

<h4><span class="" id="Time_Offline">Time Offline</span></h4>
<p><a href="https://sudoroom.org/wiki/File:Tracking_time_spent_offline.png" class="" title="how can we make it fun and rewarding for people to limit their internet addiction?"><img alt="how can we make it fun and rewarding for people to limit their internet addiction?" src="https://sudoroom.org/mediawiki/images/f/ff/Tracking_time_spent_offline.png" width="480" height="352"></a>
</p><p>Vast treasure trove of the internet has an inherent danger.
People can go online to learn about creating vegan shoes, but then be
distracted by philosophy papers or softcore porn.
I haven't figure it out yet, but there must be a fun way to help people
enjoy styaing offline if they see the benefits.
It would be cute to have a small hourglass that they can put on the
placemat... a personal contest of staying offline?
Some people will naturally object and say that staying online is what
they want to do. But what if you aren't coding? do you need to be that
plugged in?
this idea is still pretty nebulous and would need some help.

</p><p>With electronics there is so much stuff people can easily be overwhelmed.
One of the placemats should have a "shadowbox" like they use in factories.
