Description

eduMagnet can search and access different online video sites (YouTube, Blip, TeacherTube, RSS, german public TV, etc). Students and pupils can create playlists of lectures and talks and play educational content using an embedded video player (MPlayer).

As an OLPC project eduMagnet is developed for sugar OS but can also be used in any Linux environment using GTK.

The eduMagnet.org Plattform

Students may also synchronice playlists to the online platform eduMagnet.org. So other users can subscribe to their playlists. Access to new online video sites can easily be added using python plugins ("Magnets").
