Re: [school-discuss] Philosophy: Teachers with Admin Privileges or Not

Well, I read through this thread and I like it. One more thought, though, the obvious next thought: what about the students' access and privileges? If it were me, then I'd be trying to give them some space ("their space") to have autonomy.

With K12LTSP growing in popularity, it might even make sense in some situations for a teacher to maintain a small collection of images on the server. Could this lead to a possible change in what the administrator & teacher 
roles are in IT?


Excellent Justin!  I like the idea of multiple copies of the OS on the
classroom server, perhaps one locked down that can always be recalled
so basic functionality is always available, and others specialized and
customizable by teachers in particular areas like music (a Musix
image), math, etc.

Marilyn (and other teachers), how would that be for you, to have one
image locked down you knew you could always count on for basic needs,
but still have the freedom to do whatever you wanted with the other
images?
