Colingo

Colingo is a new non-profit language learning organization providing free educational videos to help XO users learn English.

The first batch of videos, aimed at helping Spanish-speakers learn English, is called 1-2-3 inglés.

ColingoXO

Colingo is developing an activity for Sugar called ColingoXO. ColingoXO will provide a framework for constructivist language-learning by letting children construct video narratives in English using short video clips. Children will be able to use Colingo-produced public domain pre-recorded video clips or record new clips using the XO camera / microphone. Essentially it is an integrated video recorder and extremely simple video editor.

ColingoXO will also provide a framework for sharing video narratives, both between XO machines and online through colingo.org and other websites.
