to wixi means to learn each others' language and grow multilingual
|
wixi twexterwixi'd wikis get text twext.. twext texts provide meaningful, comprehensible input for language learners.. twext prints on good old paper.. wikis make twext easy to mix and share.. the OLPC is connecting kids learning many different languages.. wixi offers a learner-centric environment for kids to construct language learning.. |
|||
chunk methodtwext uses a simple method to associate chunks of text with chunks of translation.. the method works with regular text and also with lyrics to songs.. and may work between any of many languages: http://twext.com/method
| ||||
press ESC to stop the animations, RELOAD to restart animations | ||||
|
xcroll inputxcroll controls text and twext input windows, as well the live preview window.. controlling many windows with a single scrollbar has many potential uses.. old code runs demo at http://delyric.com/imagine

|
multilingualwe want it to be easy to add languages and dialects to twexter, so diverse groups can share ideas and learn each others' language.. but we also want it to be easy to exclude languages so our brains don't go whack.. so we're pointing toward a distributed twexter somewhere around maybe dodo data over http://twext.com/git | |||
moodlingembedding twexter into systems like moodle and the xo sounds maybe more useful than dealing with a grand central system.. now we're working toward javascript library that wansta plugin to mediawiki, wordpress, moodle, olpc, etc http://twext.com/embed | ||||
dodo datadodo data is a rough idea to store data in the filename. Why? Simple data in the filename may be easy to read and share, for both machines and humans.. ("filename" means URL, when multilingual idn enabled via punycode).. the dodo idea is to version control and distribute twext data so variable systems and peoples can easily use it http://twext.com/dodo | ||||
delyricdelyric is to learn language with lyrics.. if songs get into your heart then you can't get'em outta your head.. lyrics help us remember language, for a bunch of reasons, mainly because you might actually care.. maybe we can route around popular lyric suppression near http://more.read.fm/fair_use#citage | ||||
|
mexicotalleres linux has hired Gabriel Saldaña to help twext get real.. apparently there is suspicion that twexter may prove useful in educational systems here in mexico.. muchisimas gracias a gabriel, jergas, la jefa y a méxico pa'todo.. text also wants to get twext in http://twext.com/brazil
| |||
scratchscratch helps kids learn programming by assembling commands to create multimedia games.. embedding twexter into scratch could be an simple, affective, effective way for kids to program some human language learning.. http://scratch.mit.edu
| ||||
not strictly synxi but lovely mix of animated lyrics, video, sound here |
synxisynxi wantsa print text as you speak it, like somekinda instamatic karoake text machine.. they say the BBC closed captions live, so mild synxi sounds doable.. wild synxi wansta animate emotive timed text and play with twext or whatever.. synxi wansta open up SLS, to make it really easy to layer timed text on top of shared video.. http://synxi.com | |||
storyaskingstoryasking doesn't need no fancy IDN SLS P2P VOIP MP3ID3 to teach language.. it just needs people who have feelings and imaginations and who like to communicate.. still, colingo, delyric, twext, scratch and synxi could all thread into somekinda StoryAsking game kids could make and use to learn each others' language http://storyask.cc/ | ||||
