Web Pages without Training
Making web pages is hard - even with "easy to use" HTML editors. 34 million people are creating web pages regularly with blogs. No one trained them. See examples of free server-based software that no one will know is a blog.
Open Source Software: Why Aren't You Using It?
Are you using MS Office, Photoshop, Acrobat, Blackboard, or Frontpage? Stop selling these products to your students. Get high quality OSS for Windows and MacOS for every computer in every school and home in your district.
Moodle: An Open Source Course Management System (think Blackboard)
Moodle is a tool that can support student learning and parental communication. Moodle is free and will run on your web server or UT will host it for you. In this workshop you'll build your own course that you can take home with you.
K12LTSP: Inexpensive Ubiquitous Computing for Your Classrooms
Computers can't make a difference in how people learn until students have regular access to them. Few students use computers for more than two hours a week. Learn how Linux can be a solution. It's not just for geeks anymore.
