Ubuntu is one of three of the most popular open source software bundles created just for student and classroom use. It was Linux's program.
Ubuntu Education Edition is an application bundle designed to overlay your existing Ubuntu desktop. Installation is a piece of cake, simply download the educational addon .iso file and burn it to a writeable CD, or open it via Ubuntu's Add/Remove Applications option found under the Applications tab.
There are four different app bundles to choose from, depending on the age level of the user: Tertiary for university-level students, Secondary for 13-18 year-olds, Primary for 6-12 year-olds, and Preschool for the five and under set. Alternatively, you can download the complete educational desktop and receive all four bundles at once.
Kubuntu users have their own educational desktop too, though not all its components are KDE-based.
There's even a suite of educational games called GCompris designed to build language, math, and reading skills in small children.
Where Ubuntu Education Edition really shines are its batch of science and math apps. A desktop planetarium, periodic table application, mathematical equation plotter, and percentage calculator are but a few of the options students have at their fingertips to help learn, practice, and drill math and science facts
So, with Ubuntu, parents or teachers can be helped to teach their children or students learn computer well. Or maybe children and students can learn math, to build language, reading skills, and etc easily. It is so important to use Linux in school program. Enjoy it!
