| dgroos | alkisg: time to try what you mentioned yesterday, about using the epoptes directly on a fatclient and not via ltsp-remoteapps? | 18:43 |
|---|---|---|
| alkisg | Hi dgroos, hm.... | 18:44 |
| alkisg | No - we've done some related changes, but we're not finished yet, | 18:47 |
| dgroos | I just finished installing epoptes on the other server as well, and thought that it would be good if the 2 teachers at that school only saw their own clients--that was the purpose of this technique (as well as faster performance)? | 18:47 |
| alkisg | and I'd like to have them finished so that I could do what you want with a couple of lines | 18:47 |
| alkisg | (now it would need e.g. 10 lines in 3 different files) | 18:47 |
| alkisg | No, that would be "groupping" | 18:48 |
| alkisg | If you see the screenshot in the site, it's actually a mockup | 18:48 |
| dgroos | There isn't a big rush from my end so that's fine. | 18:48 |
| alkisg | The left pane doesn't exist in epoptes 0.2, it'll be there in 0.4 | 18:48 |
| alkisg | There, you'll see all the autodetected computers | 18:48 |
| alkisg | Then, you'd right click and create a group called "dgroos_class" | 18:48 |
| alkisg | You'd drag from the autodetected computers the computers that belong in that class, and that would be saved in your user config file | 18:49 |
| dgroos | I see. | 18:49 |
| alkisg | The other teacher would do the same, so you'd be seeing only your class | 18:49 |
| alkisg | (no more filtering needed) | 18:49 |
| dgroos | Nice! | 18:49 |
| alkisg | You'll be able to create as many groups as you want, but "autodetected computers" will always be there | 18:50 |
| dgroos | How many classrooms are currently using v. .2? | 18:51 |
| alkisg | No idea, schools here will probably continue with sch-scripts until 12.04 arrives, where sch-scripts there won't have classroom monitoring anymore | 18:52 |
| alkisg | It'll only be a set of scripts like gnome-controlc-center | 18:52 |
| alkisg | And they don't care about i18n, and they've already set up their labs, so until then epoptes will mostly be tested by non-greek users | 18:53 |
| dgroos | sch-scripts will contain the lab set-up and server maintenance functions for Greek schools in your program? | 18:54 |
| alkisg | Yes | 18:55 |
| dgroos | When you say 250 schools, is that in your district/region or is it an affiliation of like-minded schools? (could be both of course :)) | 18:55 |
| alkisg | http://goo.gl/maps/nOoQ | 18:55 |
| alkisg | They are schools that decided to adopt "our" solution of sch-scripts/ubuntu/ltsp | 18:56 |
| alkisg | Each school can decide by itself what it wants to use, there's no central policy for enforcing specific installations... | 18:57 |
| alkisg | Only guidelines are given (that's what the team I'm in does, writes guides etc) | 18:57 |
| alkisg | (less that half of the schools show up on the map, that too is voluntary) | 18:58 |
| alkisg | *than | 18:58 |
| dgroos | Focus is on technology--any component team working on related pedagogy? (and any way to change that map to english labels :)) | 18:58 |
| dgroos | Nice and nice. | 18:58 |
| alkisg | We have lots of teams that focus on pedagogy, but the technical + pedagogical teams usually don't mix up :) | 19:00 |
| * alkisg has been in 3-4 pedagogical teams and 1 technical team so far | 19:01 | |
| alkisg | any way to change that map to english labels => no, unfortunately each school just writes its name there, it's not maintained by someone | 19:03 |
| dgroos | Right, I was referring to the Shulman, technology-pedagogy-content knowledge perspective. http://www.tpck.org/ | 19:03 |
| dgroos | OK, I guess I just need to learn Greek. Or brush up on my google-translate skills :) | 19:04 |
| alkisg | Hehe in a 350h seminar I'm doing these months they mentioned tpck a couple of weeks ago | 19:05 |
| alkisg | dgroos: you're just supposed to glance at some pins there, not read the map :) | 19:05 |
| dgroos | I know--always diving in :) Looking for political boundaries on the map and can guess at some names pretty well but... | 19:09 |
| dgroos | bbl | 19:09 |
| alkisg | bb | 19:09 |
