You have explored a wide range of things, made many notes, written down many questions and answered many of them, but by no means all, and you have also seen some things that you most likely wouldn't discover by exploring on your own. You know most of what you need in order to use the XO for studying. Much of what remains is to explore other Activities, and to find or create learning materials on whatever you want to know about or learn to do. You have also learned a good deal about what to do before you ask other people technical questions, and about what kind of questions to ask.
In addition, there is a great deal you could learn about how your XO works in hardware and software, and about programming, that is telling your XO exactly what to do. Eventually, this could lead to you writing Activities or programming Sugar itself, if you want to. Even if not, you can help those who do with suggestions, or bug reports, in addition to using programming in your studies.
You will also find that what you have learned of discovery here applies to all of the rest of your life. Not just how gadgets and programs work, or how you can study school subjects. How does your society work? How does the world work? How can we work together? But there is still much of the Undiscoverable in these areas, too. Why can't we all be friends, for example? Why do some people not value discovery, or even oppose it? Why do I do things I know I shouldn't, or fail to do things I know I should? Well, we know a few things about that, and I'll give you some hints in the Resources chapter to get you going on your lifelong journey of discovery. Perhaps you will find out more, and let the rest of us know what you find.
Now we are going to take a break in discovery to sum up some of what we know, and where to look for answers to many, but by no means all, questions. We will add some further points on the Undiscoverable.
The idea is that for the rest of our discoveries, we will all have the same base of knowledge and skills, including what things do, what they are called, and how to go about common tasks of learning and of managing a computer. So I won't have to keep asking whether you discovered something that we cover here. I'll just tell you what to do with these things as we continue to discover more.
