Hi,<div>I've been chatting with a high school teacher discussing how can we use KDE Edu to teach math in schools (since it's both our fields). </div><div>He created some very nice class where he guides the student for one hour explaining some basic math properties using KAlgebra, of course this is not ready for use yet but it's a start. The idea is to distribute during the class directly these documents to the students so that they can work themselves with our software. Ideally different teachers will be able to contribute new documents and share themselves content, thus win-win-win situation.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I think that we all agree that it is a great way to work until here.</div><div>Problems:</div><div>- We don't have a good place to share that kind of stuff.</div><div> -> I'm not sure KDE Files fits our needs. It's not free, it's centralized, I'm not sure it's easy to contribute incrementally.</div>
<div> -> we could consider using wikis but they are hard to integrate with our software</div><div> -> we could do something ourselves but that means work</div><div> -> we could use anything I don't know of, so please help :)</div>
<div>- We should introduce translation of such content, that leads me to the next point.</div><div>- Formats are totally fragmented.</div><div> -> Cantor worksheets use rich text format which is fine but generating .pot files from that and new cws sounds hard because it's not just plain text. (Albert? any hint)</div>
<div> -> If we propose to use ODT, which is the sanest format in my opinion, we are disabling teachers to use Cantor to create the classes. Is it possible to export Cantor worksheets to ODT?</div><div> -> Does anybody know how hard would it be to make ODT translatable?</div>
<div> -> Does anybody have a better solution than those?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Aleix</div>
