[GCompris-devel] GCompris activity recoded in Scratch

[Bruno Coudoin]

Hi,

For those who don't know, Scratch is a visual programming environment
used to teach children.

I am glad to see our work being reused this way.

Bruno.

Hi Bruno,

I completed a first tutorial that teaches how to create in Scratch a
simple program similar to GCompris "erase activity":

https://github.com/kronwiz/codingtutorials/tree/master/scratch/it/scopri_immagini_base

The PDF file is the actual tutorial that kids will follow with the help
of mentors to build the game. The final project is contained in the sb2
file, and you can see an online version here:

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/49248044/

As you can see in the repository home page
(https://github.com/kronwiz/codingtutorials) all the resources are under
the GPLv3 license except for the tutorials that are under the
CC-BY-NC-SA license. I hope this complies with your requirements.
At the end of the PDF file I also put an "acknowledgments" section
saying that the idea and the resources have been taken from GCompris.

My goal is to add more tutorials like this one based on GCompris activities.

Thank you again for having granted the access to GCompris resources.

Best regards.

Andrea

    Hi,

    Thanks for your interest in GCompris.

    Many graphics comes from openclipart.org <http://openclipart.org>
    and are public domain but many were done specifically for GCompris
    and are released under GPL V3. You are thus safe if you put your
    application under GPL V3. If you comply with this, you can reuse
    anything you want.

    I ask you not to call your application GCompris or reuse our logo.
    You can still mention that it is based on GCompris and point to
    gcompris.net <http://gcompris.net>.

    When you are ready, I am fine to mention your work on gcompris.net
    <http://gcompris.net> and on our mailing list. Even if you want to
    get help, maybe some of our followers will be happy to help you one
    way or another.

    Bruno.
