I was talking with Jeff Elkner (who teaches high school in Virginia, has
been deeply involved with teaching open source for many years, and is
the coauthor of
http://www.greenteapress.com/thinkpython/thinkCSpy/html/, among a myriad
of fantastic open source in education projects) tonight and he was
wondering how to create a custom Linux image for a class he's teaching
this fall.
It would be a normal desktop with office applications (openoffice, etc)
and would be put on a USB stick since the students can't install things
on their computers. The purpose would be to get students comfortable
with using open source applications for their work, rather than a focus
on training developers (though the students will be exposed to basic
programming in python via https://launchpad.net/gasp)
Is this something that the Education SIG would be interested in doing?
What would be needed and what would be involved? Nothing set in stone or
anything like that yet -- just exploring possibilities.
