The power supply in town is not very reliable, so many days we didn't have power, or had it intermittently. The children tried to bring their XOs charged, but still some needed to charge them at school. --[[User:Carla|Carla]] 16:56, 30 October 2007 (EDT) |

In the classroom
Amit and I, together with the teacher and the children, did some testing on the Mesh by sharing activities. Children were working on the laptops and did different kinds of sharing to work with their classmates. The Sharing Activities wasn't that intuitive, we weren't really successful with it. Nevertheless, the children who shared activities were super-happy. --Carla 16:56, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

Comments
I was very involved with the technical side with Amit, until Manu and Arjun arrived. I still was in the loop but more involved with the educational side. So, I'll focus on the aspects that had an impact on the educational side Khairat Chronicle. We worked with the developers daily to tackle these issues. --Carla 16:56, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
