Hi Stuart

I am Alex black and I teach at the Inter Community School (ICS) in Zürich. I have used Ubuntu (and before that Suse) privately. Had no luck using ubuntu in school, firmly Windows IT department. Things maybe are now looking like they may change. Are you ubuntu machines linked to the school network. What applications are you running? Have you heard of Sankore open source whiteboard software. I am trying to break out of the hugely expensive waste of time with Smart touch boards. It would be good to collaborate.

cheers

Alex

Hi

My name is Stuart and I am a primary school teacher working at the International School of Geneva. I am using edubuntu 11.10 on my classroom computers and loving it. My IT director gave me permission to keep some old lenovos that were at the end of their lease and put edubuntu on them. This has let me increase my class computer from 3 desktops to 7 desktops and 4 thinkpads.
It all started from savaging from iMacs from the rubbish tip....
