Linux in Education: Concepts Not Applications

Courtesy Linux Today  Thu, 06/12/2008 - 16:45

Linux Journal: "One of the biggest arguments used against Linux in grade school level education is that we aren't teaching kids to use the applications they'll use in the "real world".

As the Technology Director for a K-12 school district, I've heard that argument many times. After all these years, I still don't buy it.

Truthfully, to really give kids a well rounded education, we should expose them to as many different types of technology as we can."
