The Demo@School Project   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #20 of 131 |
I got to know about this list from another mailing list. Happy
to know that there are other initiatives to take GNU/Linux to
schools. In Goa, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and several other places similar
moves are going around.

I'd wish to take your attention to the Demo@Schools project. It
is an attempt to make free (as in freedom) study materials.

The <Demo@Schools> project aims at promoting Free Software to
educational institutes in India.

The project started with the aim of demoing Free Software to
Matriculation schools in Tamilnadu primarily because these schools had
a 'Free' syllabus. A syllabus that each individual school decides. We
thought it would be useful to convince these schools to teach Free
Software.

This repository would be mainly used in writing such textbooks. We
would also be using this repository for a variety of our activities
such as preparing posters, presentations, etc.,.
