We did some really great work today, and had fun doing it!
Ubuntu GNU-LLinux being installed for video editing in 7th grade social studies
We installed 14 GNU-Linux work stations in 3 classrooms at the public charter KIPP San Francisco Bay Academy at Geary and Scott Streets. Thanks very much to Eric S., Joe Puig, Grant Bowman, Michael Paoli, Elizabeth Krumbach, and Michelle Mastin, for doing a really fast, great job with these installs! The teachers are gonna love these machines! Here are a few pics from Elizabeth Krumbach and Michelle Mastin:
The 7th grade social studies teacher is going to use the machines for student video editing. The 6th grade social studies teacher is going to use the machines for student research. The 5th grade math teacher is going to use the machines for student math practice. This is a really meaningful contribution to public schools that otherwise would not have the money to get computers into these teachers’ classrooms! Thanks everyone for the great work that you did today!
If anyone is interested in helping Partimus.org put computers into schools, we are excited to get your help. If you are too busy, but have a few dollars that you can spare, contributions are also welcome! Donating can be as easy as buying some Ubuntu-themed earrings for someone you love:
