Open Source Technologies for Schools

	Open Source Technologies for Schools

It is my philosophy that if we teach students strategies for learning that involve technology, that we should use technology that is available to all kids.

Open Source Technologies are available to all and match my philosophy.

The following technologies are used in my school and available for all. Some technologies have been used more than others. The links that I am providing are links to download the software. Please email me if you have any issues.
