An activity for recording interviews with an XO

Interview is an activity for recording an interview with someone else using an XO. It works with the built-in camera and mic or with an external microphone. This is currently being developed in coordination with the OurStories project to make the XO an effective tool for recording stories.

Goals

  • Provide children with a way of recording interviews, stories, and other oral history from one another and from other community members
  • Provide a way to backup and publish stories to local school servers and to a global story map.
