Madhur Shrestha of the SeaGate Institute of Technology made Day Two's second presentation on his work with Nepalese and Japanese students in Nepal using Squeak. Students created projects in Squeak and shared them via the Net and with the assistance of web cams at the International Squeak Live Video Conference. Participating students had a very active role throughout the conference making presentations, introducing speakers, sharing in cultural dance, and of course, sharing the Squeak projects.
In Nepal, the limitations of bandwidth, accessibility, and training for teachers in Squeak are constraining, though many opportunities exist for collaboration, software and support to schools, advance training in Squeak.
