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..
