COMP 3000 2011 Report: Qimo
Background
Installation/Startup
I was first given option to choose my language
Then I was given opportunity to try Qimo without installing it, or I could install it
Trying that option immediately brought me to a splash screen The loading screen was simply a black screen, not very informative (I guess not to confuse kids). Then it loaded up.
Basic Operation
At the bottom is very big, childish looking icons. Text editor, "gCompris" which is some sort of __, "child's play" which is some sort of ___, "tux paint" which is a childrens version of paint, "tux math" which is a bunch of ___, "tux type" which is a __, "laby" which is a labyrinthe program that seems to teach kids programming, making each step in the labyrinth a function call in python.
