I also want to link to as many additional reading materials about constructivism and how to teach with that learning theory in the forefront. I am way out of my league writing about constructivism and intervention guides (lesson plans) but I figure I have to start somewhere. I’ve also started an Educator’s Guide at. Note that we are porting the kids manual to so also become familiar with their structure. Feel free to edit or start a new page with a new audience in mind.Become familiar with the Simplified User Guide at and read about the audiences at.You must download and install this package to emulate the XO laptop.

Adam’s filling out the infrastructure on FM now here:įrom Adam I learned that the formatting of the print versions out of the Floss Manuals wiki uses Scribus –. Once I get the new structure to the content, Adam and I and anyone else who wants to pitch in can do copy and paste of the HTML into the FM pages.
