Sugar Labs and others are actually working on creating digital replacements for textbooks, and translating them to other languages. Bangladesh is the first to digitize all of its existing primary and secondary textbooks, more than a hundred of them. South Korea has just announced that it will do the same with its textbooks. South Africa and the state of California have suites of secondary-school textbooks, and there are of course many other sources. http:/ In all cases, the plan is to go from static PDFs and other e-book formats to e-learning materials integrated with software of various kinds, and to introduce computer programming as a central part of appropriate subjects. Naturally Sugar Labs intends to use its Sugar software, but there are other options, such as Edubuntu and of course commercial offerings. |
