Introducing hands-on computing in secondary education

,----[ Quote ]
| Teachers work long hours and are underpaid for 
| the work they do. Between 7AM and 3PM they're 
| responsible for their students, with 
| (possibly) an hour of time during the day 
| where they might be free to "prep". The truth 
| is that "preparation time" for many educators 
| comes either early in the morning or after 
| work. Many teachers spend one, two, or more 
| hours after work (either at school or at home) 
| preparing their lessons for the next day. 
| Weekends, likewise, are often time spent 
| catching up, grading, or doing other work that 
| (in theory) should be doable during their 
| "preparation time." Put simply, educators work 
| hard.

Test driving the OpenSuSE Education distribution

,----[ Quote ]
| Itâs a breath of fresh air to see a
| distribution singling out the educational
| institutions. This is exactly what schools
| need. Now the hardest part is making those
| schools aware of its existence. If OpenSuSE
| Edu can tackle that, they will have a huge
| success on their hands.
