Sugar Labs – the authors of the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) project, has announced the first beta release of Sugar on a Stick, a self-contained Sugar environment that is distributed as a live USB image.
It can boot on PCs, notebooks or netbooks and it offers a unique child-friendly user interface. All created data are stored on the USB. At first the Sugar Learning Platform came as LiveCD and image for the virtual machines on Windows and Mac OS X.
Offering a coherent and consistent computing experience, Sugar Learning Platform includes many applications – Activities for students as well as for teachers (e.g. InfoSlicer). It’s very helpful for designing lessons with content from the Internet.
