Hey SudoRoomers,
One Laptop Per Child San Francisco (OLPC-SF)[1] is a volunteer group
here in San Francisco. This weekend we're hosting our FREE annual
Community Summit[2]. Learn about the intersection of education and
technology in this global movement. We'll have folks from Sugar
Labs[3] presenting, the creators of the Sugar Learning Environment,
the free/libre open source software that powers the iconic XO laptop.
Following the Summit, we'll be hosting Turtle Art Day[4]! Turtle Art
is an application which teaches programming and design by moving a
turtle with a pen around the screen. This event is happening around
the world throughout October. Turtle Artists are gathering to teach
and learn together and celebrate Turtle Art. The event is geared
towards 6-12+ year-olds but no one is too old for Turtle Art! It's
free to attend, no hardware required -- just bring your creativity!
