I think it’s incredible that people are volunteering their time to create open source learning software.
I hope it’s extensible enough to incorporate paid content. IMHO anything less can compete for attention in today’s attention economy.
I don't want any paid content in my learning experience. We should encourage free as in beer and free as in freedom learning materials.
Whether it's paid or libre is irrelevant, kids literally don't care about Adult(tm) concepts like that.
The screenshot for "This is one of the many fun activities" is a black and white blocky maze!
I'm sure they mean well, but whoever made this doesn't have children.
I noticed that all the open source learning apps that I could find were kind of amateurish and buggy.
I would pay good money for a tablet filled with software for kids that would teach the basics and be interesting at the same time.
I found some games where I was able to remove adds (one time payment) and an app used for learning reading/writing.
I had a click through of this out of interest; by the time I'd picked a colour for my avatar (awful gaudy colour combinations), read the half-dozen tutorial tool-tips just to get the the main ring, I was already bored stiff, as an adult with an almost limitless concentration span.
I hate to say it, but I can't imagine my children wanting to use this as it's presented, at any age.
