Hi,<br><br>My name is Deepank and I am totally fascinated with the whole idea of OLPC. Although I am spending my summers with Google Summer of Code developing for openMoko, I have this idea of having an educational toolkit for OLPC which I would like to implement.
<br><br>As the laptop will be used in the education of millions of children all around the world there is a need to have features that will radically change the way education is being imparted. With the intorduction of a digital medium for imparting education, the testing procedures will also undergo an overhaul. For the same reason, there is a need to have an educational toolkit for OLPC.
<br><br><font size="2">The objective of this project will be to create a
platform over which development of educational tests will be very easy. It
will use the basic PyGame API for development. After its development,
even a simple rural teacher with no particular experience in
programming would be able to create new exciting educational games and
tests for his/her students. <br><br></font>This tool will enable a user to do the following: <br> 1. Make a quiz(Timed/Untimed)<br> 2. Track and report results. <br> 3. Enable a teacher to add MCQs, Match the following, Fill in the
<br> blanks and Images very easily without any programming.
