Project Objectives

Generally, the GreenThumb project aims to develop a Sugar activity that can provide teachers an alternative way for demonstrating fundamental genetic concepts. This project also aims to inculcate, within the child, the importance of the environment, how relationships and interactions between plants, animals and humans can change (harm or make better) the world. Specifically, the project focuses on achieving the following:

  1. To devise a game design incorporating mesh networking to achieve a mechanism for sharing of ideas, discussion and collaborative learning.
  2. To design a system architecture for efficient use of memory in implementing simulation processes.
  3. To develop a simple, easy-to-use, adaptable and fail-soft User Interface encouraging creative exploration among its users.
