Timothée and Aiswarya Giet, maintainers and contributors of KDE's educational suite @gcompris, visit #Kerala (#India) on holiday, but then end up helping local educational officials improve their #FreeSoftware setup, adding two new local languages to #GCompris and getting featured in national and local press.
A productive vacation.

Pit prügelt nen Pinguin ohne die geringste Rücksicht auf Nahrung so flott wie nur möglich über Eis, Schnee und Fels den Berg runter... ❄️ 🐧 🏔️
Ich bin KEIN Gamer - noch nie... aber Enkel zwingen mich - und plätten mich teils sehr derbe (haben "nur" die #Tux Dinger und #gCompris)
Bei dem Mario ähnlichen Jump'n'Run - "tötet" mich selbst der 6 jährige wie nichts...
Kart muss ich bei dem 9-jährigen alles geben um knapp Augenhöhe zu behalten...
Aber beim Racer liege ich Welten vor...🤷♂️ 🙏 🤪

Description de #Gcompris en kabyle, en 2008.
Another Wednesday night Free Software time slot! This 7(?) year old girl has been intent on learning chess moves with G-compris durig her last 3 or 4 visits. She comes every other week with he Mom who is the Hip Hop Dance instructor. I was distracted while signing with the two nice Deaf woman and the Mom had to request the PC setup for her daughter. The GNU/Linux Debian Gnome setup that boots to G-Compris was all set up, I just had to get a guy to move to another table so the girl could sit down and focus on chess. She was quick.. I've been going through the HipHop stretching warm up routine with the Mom but got called over to the PC. The girl somehow ended up with 8 applications opened over 5 workspaces. When a new blank workspace opened up the logo key was either forgotten or wasn't helpful enough. I had to close Inkscape and Gimp so she could focus on Fellswoop, "Five in a row"?, and Nibbles. Nibbles with the arrow controls is hard on this laptops keyboard. Maybe it's hard in general of little young people? But the girl is intent. Maybe she'll take it on as a challenge over the next month or so... Maybe I should ask around for an old game controller or find some way to make it more intuitive for a 7yo?

During Wednesday's Free Night School a girl of about 6 or 7 years of age sat working with Gcompris for about an hour. From 2 weeks ago she remembered and asked if she could use the computer. I said sure and just walked over with her to pull out the seat. She jumped right in and found the chess game. It looked like she just started learning the moves last time and was very intent on learning the game. It worked out great because with the girl occupied with Gcompris her mother could concentrate more on leading us through HipHop stretches and basic moves. A month or so ago the girl kept hanging on her mother while we were trying to get through the stretches. I sing John Cougar Mellencamp's "Hurt so good" while we do it and they still let me participate: saints! working towards providing a place for everyobody, even tone-deaf barbarian whiners.
The hip hop Mom commented that the Gcompris games seemed kinder and more mentally active, there isn't any fighting and killing things. Nobody seems to have old computers lying around though. I offer to take any old computer to reformat the HD and set it up just like the PCs here where the kids learn chess and practice typing. Eventually people will notice that kids can entertain themselves on screen without any internet connection or violence. I should ask again about a space where I can just leave a PC for kids to learn with at any time...
The chess screen made it onto an IG reel as one of the four must-have tools for the Night School...

The 自由ソフト Freedom Software timeslot is back to Wednesday night. You can see the poetry people talking on a sofa in the background to the left, on the right is the local guitar teacher. The poetry people tend to come every week. The guitar teacher has his own school, I think, and the last Wednesday of every month is the only evening he has free. I tend to refer to him as one of the Gypsy Kings: should probably remember the name of another classic Spanish guitarist, who were they in the movie with Sean Penn??
This time a 5yo girl took a break from her dodge ball adventure to work the mouse with GCompris. I was off talking and came back to see that she had already found the color-making game on her own. She had done it before a few weeks ago, I think. Her mother seemed impressed at how familiar Libre Office's Writer seemed for writing reports like she does at work with proprietary software. Tux Type's lesson 7 or so seemed interesting too. A slightly older boy came in after dodge-ball to join the girl doing TuxType's comet zap. I think I had the Animals selected.. We were supposed to be cleaning up and leaving at the time so I didn't have time to get picture. One of the organizers got some sell phone photos of us all on her phone so maybe those photos are spreading the word somehow. Eventually I'll have to get organized about explaining what it all is, but words from mouths you trust and direct experience and talks about what the needs are might be enough...

The Freedom Software 自由ソフト time slot is back to Wednesdays. There were a lot more people then usual this Wednesday because of a special event with the people from the nearby army (Self Defense Forces 自衛隊) base. Usually it's only one guy doing camouflage hiding, stealth walking and interesting exercises. This time there were a group of people in organizing some sort of quiet run event. It was hot so sometimes kids would come inside for a coolness break. Three elementary school tried GCompris and TuxPaint. I tell everyone if they bring in an old PC, or some machine that no one is using I'll set it up the same way. It's mostly just planting seeds now I guess, maybe when the Win10 support ends... I should really talk to the people about a special Freedom Software presentation and demonstration by then, I guess...
It's good to have something like this that forces you out into the town to talk with people, see faces, carry babies around. I'll have to remember to take Maron more often. She was popular with everyone and might enjoy the change of scenery. It will be important to remember she's out there and that she should be reassured regularly. Hopefully nothing will sneak into the yard and eat the chickens while she's gone. With the longer days the chickens don't go to roost for the night in their safe cages until after 6:30 or so.. Makes it hard to go out for the night without worrying about getting back and shutting their cages before they get eaten.

New in the software depot for Haiku, GCompris 25.1 (64bit buildmasters having some issues but should be available soon(ish)) 😇
Keep your youngsters busy in a pleasant way!

GCompris is a hit with the kids and their Moms. One little girl asks for "OiGaki" drawing(TuxPaint) but mostly the kids keep finding things to do among the GCompris Activities. This time the 7(?) year old's Mom got involved with exploring chess moves. These two knew me from some sort of Xmas Santa event in December. After doing some board games (and maybe the trampoline and other things) they got started with the Freedom Software PCs late (after 7:30 during the 6]30 to 8:00 time slot) but it was great for me to see that the color matching game is more subtle or involved now. I guess it's a newer version of GCompris compared to the one I have on the ancient MacBook. I'm glad this newer PC fell into my hands, the screen is bigger and it doesn't make me nervous by getting really hot likes some of the older machines. I got an older Sony Vaio that gets hot and seems like part of the screen is melted or something. But I take it as a backup in case more than 2 or 3 people want the Freedom Software experience at the same time. I'll have to make sure I have still more backup PCs in the car just in case. One other Mom has been talking about bringin an old PC in for months. Some old guys are having PC troubles too, andi just free a 32bit Fujitsu machine for my 82yo wood stove buddy. It seems like he AND his peers have a bunch of older machines laying around. the old Fujitsu is slow (with Gnome, maybe I should have went with XFCE or LXDE but I know how to adjust everything with GNOME) but the screen and the rest is immaculate, very nice: it could be a good machine for learning to touchtype with tuxtype or for grandkids to playaround with GCompris, TuxPaint, fraqtive....Maybe learn English with Emacs Psychotherapists and by comparing the tutorials in different languages. DrRacket is on there too, along with Abiword and gnumeric, light-weight office-type applications in case the heavy-weight LibreOffice is too much for slow machines...

Je sais qu'il y en a plein d'autres. Mais la base de la démarche, c'est qu'elle comprenne qu'en terme de logiciels, il y a moins bien, mais c'est plus cher.
À son tour maintenant de les recommander tous autour d'elle :)

The weather is getting nicer and my Free Night School timeslot is moved from Wednesdays to Fridays for April and May. An 8 or so year old girl got into Gcompris running through Debian/Gnome on an ancient MacBook. She kept finding interesting activities in GCompris, I had never seen half the things she and was relieved she figured them by herself. I just tried t take photos of each activity using both a digital camera and a FoolPhone. I posted a bunch of photos to instagram with the AtYorugakkou mentions. That was good because a local dentist asked about setting up old computers for kids in his waiting room. So now there's an old Win7 machine set up in the dentist's waiting room and four of his staff members are acquainted with it. A lot of people seem to have old machines lying around that could become useful for somebody.. I might end up with a couple more laptops, maybe I should start visiting the nearest little clinics and hospitals and see if they'd like to Free Software machines in their waiting rooms. And make sure people can get in touch if they have old PCS they want freed up for their kids' learning...
