Talk:Education Ideas

I will probably make multiple pages from this discussion, which ranges from technical details about how to use a wiki, to questions of language choice, to questions of educational content. Not that these are completely unrelated topics, but the threads are getting difficult to follow. --Walter

Request

Could you possibly consider implementing the ideas in the "Additional facilities which could expand the capabilities possible with this wiki" section please, if that can be done using the present wiki-engine.

Esperanto?

Is OLPC serious about using Esperanto as the language of educators? Or is this just a pipe dream of the people who contribute to this Wiki?

I personally like the idea of a "worldwide education language", but from a practical standpoint I think it is an extreme disapointment. As mentioned in the article, English is the current "worldwide education language" and probably it would be much more practial to choose it. (case in point: are any of this wiki's pages written in Esperanto?)

If Esperanto is not the language of choice, I strongly recomend moving the associated verbage in the article to the talk page, as it's presence conveys some sence of standard.
