Activity
> Sugar education software module. In other contexts these might be
> called programs, but we prefer to emphasize what the students can do
> with them, not where they came from.
Definition
> An association between a name which may mean nothing by itself and a
> description intended to convey an important idea. Frequently we need a
> different kind of association between names and ideas, such as
> pictures, animations, or actual experience. The most important purpose
> of definitions is to explain what the thing named does; another is to
> describe its uses, or as we often say its purposes; a third is to
> describe the appearance of something, so that we can recognize it when
> we see it; a fourth is to enable us to talk about the thing
> conveniently with those who already have some idea of it. Usually the
> order of importance of these purposes is entirely misunderstood.
Favorite
> Activity that shows in the Home view icon ring. A user can mark an
> Activity as a Favorite in the List view by clicking the star outline
> next to the Activity name.
Frame
> Popup rectangular border in Sugar showing View icons and active
> Activities on the top; friend icons on the right; hardware icons on
> the bottom; and icons for open documents on the left. The frame is
> activated by putting the mouse cursor into a corner of the screen, or
> optionally the side (see My Settings), or by pressing the Frame button
> on the top right of an XO keyboard. Moving the mouse cursor away from
> the activation area or pressing the Frame button while the Frame is
> active dismisses the Frame.
Group view
> View showing colored XO icons of the user's friends who are connected,
> and grayed-out icons for those who are not.
Home view
> View showing XO icon, an icon for the current Activity (or journal if
> no Activity has been started), and a ring or other arrangement of
> available Activity icons.
Hover Menu
> A menu that pops up when the mouse cursor is held over an icon for one
> second, and expands further after one more second. A feature that many
> users cannot discover without being told about it.
Index
> Synonym for Glossary.
Journal
> A browser for saved software sessions and documents, allowing sorting,
> searching, and access to metadata.
Menu Bar
> A rectangular area at the top of the screen containing text labels or
> icons, where clicking with the mouse results in the appearance of a
> drop-down menu containing further labels or icons for Activity
> functions available to the user.
Metadata
> Information about a file, such as file type, software used to create
> it, description, tags, a screen shot, date and time, and more. The
> Journal maintains metadata about saved documents and software
> sessions.
Neighborhood view
> View showing wireless mesh and access points, connected XOs, and
> shared Activities.
OS
> Operating System. This describes the Software that runs on your XO
> laptop.
School server (XS)
> A computer designed by OLPC for use in schools to hold student backups
> and content, and to provide school administration server software such
> as Moodle.
Sugar
> Education software for the One Laptop Per Child project, designed to
> run on the XO and on other computers running the Linux operating
> system.
Toolbar
> A rectangular area of the screen, usually at the top, containing icons
> representing Activity functions available to the user.
