The OpenDisc provides an educational version called OpenEducationDisc containing "high quality open source software" which "focuses solely on meeting educational needs of students of all ages".
The contents are categorised in the following areas: Office and Design, Internet, Art and Graphics, Multimedia, Science and Mathematics, Games, Utilities and Advanced Internet. In total, the OpenEducationDisc contains 47 useful programs, all nicely bundled in one place.
The normal OpenDisc contains a slightly different compilation of 39 programs.
The OpenEducationDisc is Windows based but many of the listed programs do work on other operating systems. Wonder if there is a Mac or Linux equivalent for the OpenEducationDisc. Anyone know?
