Could you post your field notes from your eToys demo? Also it would be great to see what the teachers' questions were.
You may have already found this on the Web, but Alan Kay did a fairly detailed tutorial/exploration of eToys-and-Squeak for Tamika Knox's class problem. See http://www.squeakland.org:8080/super/200 .
I hate to say this but I pretty much forgot what I did here -- even that I did it -- and certainly did forget this link (life has been complicated the last 2 years ...). This is actually a pretty good start at some of the things that Jerry wants and needs. I think the reason that I didn't link this up is that I didn't get done with the general stuff and didn't hand it off to anyone else .. then it got forgotten. But, it's on a swiki so it is open to be added to and changed for the better ... Maybe we should link this into the squeakland.org site even in its unfinished state and hope someone (perhaps with the energy of Sebastian's students) will add to it.
Cheers,
Alan
I found that link via Google. I suspected that it was on the Squeakland Swiki, but I couldn't find the link when I navigated around the Squeakland website -- neither http://squeakland.org/author/swikis.html nor http://squeakland.org/author/swikiserver.html points to the Swiki homepage URL ( http://squeakland.org:8080/super ).

I have some "field notes" from an attempt I made to show etoys to teachers-to-be in UCSD's Teacher Education Program that I would love to share with people on this list. Some of the contents border on painful, but if I could only answer all *their* questions (and remember, if I am twice-, these teachers are three-times-removed from Squeak-insiderness),
