KDE education children games Administration Handbook Introduction &gcompris; is a completely free educational software suite which contains a wide range of activities. It offers various activities aimed at covering a variety of fields such as the functioning of the computer, using the mouse and keyboard, general learning, reading, writing, foreign languages, algebra, as well as various activities such as memory and logic games, scientific experiments &etc;. In &gcompris; you will find many individual software packages which together make up the complete &gcompris; suite of activities. Unfortunately, it is difficult to follow and maintain them as each one offers different graphic interfaces which vary widely in quality. The purpose of &gcompris; is to provide a development platform for educational activities. &gcompris; is part of &kde; project and is placed under the GPL license. Minimal configuration -Processor : Pentium 3 500Mhz -Memory (RAM) : 512 Mega Bytes -Disk : 400 Mega Bytes -Operating system : &GNU;/&Linux;, &BSD;, MacOSX, &Windows; -Video : A 3D card is not required. 32 bits color depth mandatory +Processor : 1.6GHz Atom CPU +Memory (RAM) : 1 Giga Byte +Disk : 300 Mega Bytes +Operating system : &GNU;/&Linux;, &BSD;, MacOSX, &Windows;, Android, SailfishOS +Video : A 3D card with support of OpenGL 2.1 or higher is required. 32 bits color depth mandatory Installation The software is delivered under several forms. Follow the process according to your case. &GNU;/&Linux; : Use the packages delivered by your &GNU;/&Linux; distribution. You may have to install the package gcompris-sound-en to have the English voices. If &gcompris; is not packaged in your &Linux; distribution, please contact them to ask for the inclusion of &gcompris; in your &Linux; distribution. &Windows; : Delivered under a classic installer for &Windows;. This version requires an activation code. MacOSX : Delivered under a classic installer. This version requires an activation code. The User Interface The interface is designed for easy use by small children. &gcompris; is controlled with a mouse, it cannot be used without a mouse or a pointing system. Main window When you start the program, &gcompris; shows a graphic interface which presents the list of activities with a control bar at the bottom. Here's a screenshot of &gcompris; Main Window &gcompris; Main Window -Each icon represents an activity. When the mouse is set on it, the activity is highlighted and the name, -description and author of the activity are displayed in the description area. -Around each one, you can find small icons which give additional information about the activity. -A simple click on the icon will lead you to an activity or a menu of activities. -An icon indicates if a functioning sound system is required for an activity: - -Soundspeaker : The audio files are included for this activity. -Soundspeaker with a red cross : The audio files are not installed in the present language. - +Each icon represents an activity. Around each one, you can find small icons which give additional information +about the activity. A simple click on the icon will lead you to an activity or a menu of activities. There are 8 sections +(categories) of activities, which placed on the top or on the left (only if your orientation is portrait). For example, +there is section "Board games", which includes board games, like chess, tic tac toe or align four The stars indicates the age group for which each game is designed: - -1, 2 or 3 stars - for 2 to 6 years old. - -1, 2 or 3 complex stars - greater than 6 years old. + +1, 2 or 3 yellow stars - for 2 to 6 years old. + +1, 2 or 3 red stars - greater than 6 years old. At the bottom of the screen there is a control bar for &gcompris;. The following icons are described below from the right to the left (the icons are only displayed if they are available in the activity): - + Home - Leaves the current activity, returns to the previous menu. - - Thumb - Validate, confirm your answer. Some activities do not detect automatically whether or + + "OK" - Validate, confirm your answer. Some activities do not detect automatically whether or not the child has completed the task. In this case, you have to click on this icon. You can also use the &Enter; key on your keyboard. - - Die - The present level is displayed. Click on the die to select another level. + + +Arrows - The present level is displayed. Click on one of the arrows to select another level. Generally, the activities offer several levels whose numbers depend on the activity. In &gcompris;, it is possible to go to the next level without having completed the current level. - + Lips - Ask &gcompris; to repeat the question. - + Question mark - Display the help dialog box. Sometimes, an activity can be too complex to be described easily in the description area. In this case, this function gives access to additional information. - + Tool box - Configuration menu. The configuration is saved in the user repository (folder) under the name .config/gcompris/gcompris.conf. This is a text file which can be edited manually. - - Tux and his plane - Information box on &gcompris;, presents the main contributors and the version of the software. - - Night - Quit &gcompris;. You can also use the short cut on your keyboard + + Capital "G" - Information box on &gcompris;, presents the main contributors and the version of the software. + + Power - Quit &gcompris;. You can also use the short cut on your keyboard &Ctrl;Q Kiosk Mode When you use &gcompris; with small children or on a self-service kiosk, you can disable a certain number of options: gcompris --disable-quit : disable the Quit button. -gcompris --disable-config : disable the Configuration button -gcompris --disable-level : disable the Level button +gcompris -f : run &gcompris; in fullscreen mode +gcompris -C : disable the cursor (touch screen mode) These options can of course be combined. Keyboard Shortcuts Shortcut Action &Esc; or &Ctrl;W Quit the current activity or dialog then return to the main menu &Ctrl;Q Quit &gcompris; without further notice &Ctrl;F Toggle fullscreen mode &Ctrl;M Toggle sound mute &Ctrl;B Display or Hide the control bar Notes on Internationalization &gcompris; is internationalized and is available in more than 50 languages. If you want to check if your language is available, you can start &gcompris; and select your language in the option of configuration. Be careful, your operating system must support your language so that &gcompris; can use it. If you find a red cross while selecting a language in &gcompris;, this means that your system does not support it, even if a translation is available in &gcompris;. On &GNU;/&Linux;, if your language is not available, select another language support on your distribution to add it. In most cases, you have to install an additional package 'locale-xx' or 'language-pack-xx' - xx is a language code such as 'En' for English. If your language is not supported, you can contribute to the software and add the translation of your language. If you are interested, you can contact the translation team of the &kde; project for your language. You can check the level of translation for your language on the &kde; translation web site. Language learning You can use &gcompris; in a foreign language that you are learning. Select a foreign language in the configuration menu. Do not forget to install the optional audio modules for this language in your &GNU;/&Linux; distribution. &Windows; version is provided with all audio support that are available. Whilst using &gcompris; in another language it is possible to configure some activities more precisely using the audio set through the administration module. Customizing activities -Control Panels allow you to enrich the lexical content of activities to make them fit your needs. -In the activities of reading or math, you can add your own lists of words or numbers, and thus adapt -the content of the activity to your curriculum. - -Missing Letter - - - - - - Missing Letter - - - -Configuration table of the activity of vertical reading: - -Vertical Reading - - - - - - Vertical Reading - - - - -Default: Indicates the default language of the activity that can be changed. -Language: selects the language of the word list. -Level: indicates the level of difficulty and allows the display of lists that -you can complete and / or modify. - - - - -Administering &gcompris; -&gcompris; contains a very powerful administration module to assist in simplifying its use in schools. -This module was designed to satisfy the many different ways of using &gcompris; in as simple a way as possible. - - -Activity selection -&gcompris; currently offers nearly a hundred different activities. It is not always sensible to offer -all of the activities to children at once. One approach could be the introduction of the activities little -by little as the children develop their skills. This will keep their curiosity alive and will avoid them -loosing time doing activities which may be too complex for them. - -There are two different ways of selecting the activities: - - - - -Select an Activity by Level - - - - - - Select an Activity by Level - - - -By levels or intervals of levels.

A button allows you to erase -all the records. - - - -Identification -If you have created user profiles in &gcompris;, and you start &gcompris; with a profile, a 'Log-in' -screen will appear. -There are two identification modes: a 'list' mode where you have to find your name from a list of names. - -Children recognize their name and click on it - - - - - - Children recognize their name and click on it - - - -This mode can encourage the child read his name. -The second mode asks the child to enter his name. +You can customize some activities using tool button in them. For example, you can set lang in +some text activities (like wordsgame), or make it show real car images instead of filled rectangles +(traffic) -Children enter their login name +Select mode of activity "Traffic" - + - Children enter their login name + Select mode of activity "Traffic" -It can help the child learn how to use the keyboard. - - - -Networking / Multiple Users -If you administer a school network, you can overwrite the configuration options of your users with -your own configuration. The instructions below apply to a single system on which you want to share the -configuration between several users or for different users on multiple computers. In the last case, you -need to put the configuration files on a networked partition. -&gcompris; uses 2 distinct files for its configuration: - -The file gcompris.conf (configuration) contains -end user specific choices like sound and screen preference. -The file gcompris.db (database) contains: - -The list of all the activities and their menu position. -The user log, what activity was played, at what time and was it successful. -The users, classes, groups and profiles. -The configuration of each activity. - - - -To edit a configuration file, the easiest way is to create one from &gcompris;. Simply configure &gcompris; -as you wish, quit it and copy the created configuration file into the system one. From it, you can then -remove the options that you don't want to be compulsory. -Configuration file example: -music=1 -fx=1 -screensize=1 -fullscreen=1 -timer=1 -key="default" - - -&GNU; / &Linux; -On &GNU;/&Linux;, the configuration file is in the user directory under ~/.config/gcompris/gcompris.conf -To make the configuration global to all the users: - -You can copy your configuration file to /etc/gcompris.conf -You can run &gcompris; with the option -passing it a fully qualified path to a file - -To make all users using the same database, run &gcompris; with -option passing it a file on a local directory or a networked folder.
