Event Report
by Navneet Singh
Hi,
An event was organized at Kendriya Vidyalaya No. 2 AFS[1], Jodhpur,
Rajasthan on Tuesday, 30 April, 2013.
The day started with the discussion about why software piracy is done
specially of operating system, why we are unable to learn the software we
use or modify it, which was followed by “Introduction to Open Source”. I
discussed about advantages of open source and explained the concept of
“Free Software” to them which was followed by “Why to use Free Software”. I
told them about about various free software which can used in by them like
Libre office, GIMP, gedit. I also discussed advantages of FOSS in a
student's learning.
After a few minutes break, I continued with “Introduction to Fedora” to
them and advantages of Fedora was discussed with them. I introduced the
audience with Fedora's website and also I gave demo of Fedora 17 and Fedora
18 to them. It was followed with a hand-on lab session which included “How
to install Fedora” and then students were left to experience Fedora for few
minutes. After that a Q/A session was there in which various queries of the
students were answered. I also distributed Fedora 17 and Fedora 18 iso
images.
I would sincerely like to thank Mr. Rohit Gupta who helped me through out
the session.
The photos taken during the event are available on my blog[2].
Regards,
Navneet Singh

Comment (by tuanta):
The budget wiki page [1] has been updated to meet the real allocation
budget [2].
For countries which have got explicit updates, they have been put to the
budget page.
Budgets of countries which have not got explicit updates have been
automatically reduced 30%.
In quarterly total row, I added three additional columns which for:
* Total budget adjusted by countries.
* Real allocation budget.
* and Reserved budget = Adjusted budget - Allocation budget.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any ideas, comments and
questions.

Fedora Classroom
by Álvaro Castillo
Hi buddies!
A long time ago, I was thinking about doing some "Fedora classes" on my
high school.
So...today I was talking with Deputy Director of it. She is very nice, and
very friendly. She name is Rosa Montesdeoca.
I requested to him, to next year I can do Fedora classes for students from
12 to 16 ages. And she is agree.
So, I will have to synthetise a lot of information with his help, take some
ideas from other teachers to adapt to students with different ages, and
insert some degrees for each courses.
That's consist about show Fedora.... What's Fedora?, What's awesome
community?, What's Linux and GNU?, What's Free Software?, What's DE's?,
What's WM's?, What's Sugar, KDE, XFCE...? How to install programs easily?,
How to do homeworks (LibreOffice, or Sugar environment for more babies)?...
and so more.
And I hope teaching these development areas that Fedora has got such as
clustering, clouding, virtualization and more, can help to find a job in
the future.
The classes will be very summarized, and will be very adapted for each
teenagers.
That's also the opportunity to replace the blame .DOC/.DOCX format that are
used by some teachers.
Please, if you are teacher for high school, and you want share your point
of view, ideas, suggestions and more. Please let me know.
Cheers Fedora community!
