Open source booming in K-12 education

    Date: 08/31/07 (Open Source)    Keywords: technology

    Schools which got burned by courseware in the 1990s are now burning themselves with censorware, delivering a neutered Internet experience and teachers who are as skittish about technology today as they were 25 years ago. It's hard to see how open source will change this. Free access to resources won't matter if your kids' view of it is worse than that in China.
