[school-discuss] of interest
The following (beneath my drivel) is from a newsletter sent by an
educator web site that I frequent. The software they offer generally
runs on Windows, sometimes MacOs. I can also provide URLs for other
educational and edutainment products, if interest exists, for the sake
of comparisons or to provoke the initation of development projects
to create similar products in open source. (One program I use
frequently is Inspiration, learn more at InspirationSoftware.com
--also, a scrabble-like game would be absolutely awesome. Hasbro
Hasbro has Scrabble, of course, Galaxy.com has a couple of games that
my students play in spare class-time or at the end of the day before
bus dismissal, expecially WordConnect, which is SO like Scrabble it is
indsitinguishable, AND Lexicon, a very challenging and inventive
game.) Say, I have found a few games on the distros I ahve recently
encountered--RH 7.1 and Corel Linux. If you know of specific Language
related games I can use let me know. I did find some math products for
the kde desktop. I installed only the gnome at home, but the Corel I
installed at school uses the kde desktop. If I can figure out how, I
will add the kde to my RH 7.1 at home. Did I tell you all? I got Star
Office up and running...but all the prompts are in Spanish! I have
ordered Open Office from Cheap Bytes.
