				<lead>The computer can help get new pedagogical approaches into the classroom. While getting computers into the hands of more children is undoubtedly of benefit, the question remains, “how does one maximize the learning that occurs?”</lead>
			</paragraph>
			<paragraph>
				<headline>A “learning-centric” approach</headline>
				<text>The question often is framed in terms of teacher-centric versus child-centric methods. With Sugar, we strive for a “learning-centric” approach, where teachers mentor students as they engage with powerful ideas, “<keyphrase title="teaching less and learning more">teaching less and learning more</keyphrase>.” While we want to give children access to knowledge—through media such as electronic books, the world-wide web, and multimedia—we also want them to acquire this knowledge by putting it to use and engaging in critical dialog. With Sugar, we help learners acquire knowledge by giving them tools that make them consumers, critics, and creators of knowledge; Sugar welcomes them as members of a learning community.</text>
			</paragraph>
			<paragraph>
				<headline>Learning is not a service—it’s a process of active appropriation.</headline>
				<text>One-to-one computing initiatives—where children have access to computing “anytime” and “anywhere”—is changing in the way software developers and computer-makers think about the education industry. Cross-community collaboration between technologists and teachers ensures that the ideals of <keyphrase title="freedom, sharing, open critique, and transparency">freedom, sharing, open critique, and transparency</keyphrase> will be part of the interface to learning that touches children in the world’s classrooms.</text>				
			</paragraph>
			<paragraph>
				<text>These ideas are embodied in <keyphrase title="the culture of free software is a powerful culture for learning">the culture of free software, which is a powerful culture for learning</keyphrase>. It is possible to instill in the education industry some of the culture, technology, and values of the open source movement. Such a transfer of culture could greatly enhance the education industry and its ability to engage teachers and students: empowering them with both the freedom to act and the freedom to be critical. Criticism of ideas is a powerful force in learning and in fostering economic development; unleashing that is an important part of the mission. Conventional wisdom suggests that teachers don’t want to learn (and change); to the contrary, teachers perhaps more than any other constituency know that the status quo is failing.</text>

				<lead>Sugar is based on Constructionism. Like any good theory, Constructionism is accurate on some points, and needs further research on other areas. But what is Constructionism? Is it true? Is it effective?</lead>
			</paragraph>
			<paragraph>
				<text>Seymour Papert, the father of constructionism, slyly points out that simply giving a definition would not be a Constructionist way to teach you. Instead he suggests ways in which you can experience what works and what doesn’t in current Constructionist programs. We can be a little more explicit, but the need for experience remains central.</text>
			</paragraph>
			<paragraph>
				<text>In Piaget’s Constructivist theory of child development and learning, based on decades of research with children, understanding is something a child constructs internally out of experience and previous understanding (which in some cases will be misunderstanding), when the child’s brain is sufficiently developed to support the ideas involved.</text>
			</paragraph>
			<paragraph>
				<text>In Constructionist education on computers, “Aha!” moments—in which a child (or adult) who has been working on a problem without insight suddenly gets it—are deliberately fostered. Alan Kay gives examples of ten-year-olds, with appropriate guidance on where and how to look, and appropriate computer software to assist them, discovering essential concepts of calculus, such as the laws of constant acceleration with their geometric realization and their application to physics. The symbol manipulation and formal proofs have to be delayed to a more appropriate developmental stage, of course.</text>
			</paragraph>
			<paragraph>
				<text>Much more common still are opportunities to work together—using Sugar’s collaboration capabilities—to construct something, and to explore all that is known and unknown and share the results. This is what Ivan Krstić told us captured the teachers in Latin America, who were no longer bound to the inadequate textbooks and teaching materials provided by the government. And after the teachers got it, the parents soon got it.</text>

With Sugar, your children will engage in exploring knowledge, expressing themselves through writing, drawing, video—even programming the computer. Working collaboratively, they can reflect upon their work and use Sugar to create a portfolio of their accomplishments.</text>
			</paragraph>
			<paragraph>
				<text>With the Sugar Learning Platform, the age-old question “What did you do in school today?” can be retired. Sugar maintains a diary (the <link id="media_05">Journal</link>) of what they make (nouns), how they make it (verbs), and with whom they are collaborating (proper nouns). You can sit down with your child and walk through the Journal to review progress and leave comments for the teacher.</text>
			</paragraph>
			<paragraph>
				<headline>Activities</headline>
				<text>Sugar comes with the usual collection of <link id="about_activities">activities</link>: a web browser, an ebook reader, a multimedia player, a word processor, and lots of games. It also comes with a rich collection of music tools, both for playing and composing music, and programming tools that are accessible to child as young as 4-years old, but interesting enough to keep a teenager engaged. A hallmark of Sugar is its simplicity—even pre-schoolers can use the Sugar basics—while putting no upper bound on the complexity of expression to which your child can reach.</text>
			</paragraph>
			<paragraph>
				<headline>Collaboration</headline>
				<text>Collaboration is fundamental in Sugar. Your child can collaborate with friends, family, and classmates—playing games, chatting, sharing bookmarks, and helping each other with homework.</text>
			</paragraph>

				<headline>Try Sugar</headline>
				<text>You can <link url="http://sugarlabs.org/go/DocumentationTeam/Try_Sugar">try Sugar</link> by downloading it to a USB key and then using it to boot your desktop or laptop computer. (Sugar will not change anything on your computer—it uses the USB instead of your harddisk.) You can introduce Sugar to your child’s school using USB sticks as well. With Sugar, children grow into confident, joyful learners and realize their unlimited potentials.</text>

			</paragraph>
			<paragraph>
				<text>Sugar can accommodate a wide variety of students, with different levels of skill in terms of reading, language, and different levels of experience with computing. It is easy to approach, yet it doesn’t put an upper bound on a student’s personal expression.</text>

			</paragraph>
			<paragraph>
				<text>At the same time, Sugar is flexible; it works coherently with the wide variety of instructional frameworks, deepening the student’s learning experience. Sugar also provides access to internet learning resources.</text>
