It is a good idea. But the Department HOD asked for a training.
Because the college is already convinced about the advantage of
GNU+Linux System, great job done by MMCET students Binny, George and
their friends. Also the college showed a willingness to do Free
Software projects as part of curricula. But we have to give them good
training to switch from a proprietary platform to Free Software.

I hope if we could successfully do this the college will provide a
space to organize workshops on other Free Software development tools
like Python, QT etc. Also we will lot of Free Software volunteers for
development.

Re: [fsug-tvm] Volunterres required for Installation #Christ Nargar School, Vellayambalam

2010-05-26 Thread ashik salahudeen
Hi,

Me and Prasad went and met Thomas Mani sir today. These are the things
we gathered from the meeting

1. They do not need professional support. It is enough to train a few
teachers to install and use GNU/Linux.

2. They need a syllabus and some course materials that are in line
with their current Windows based syllabus - i.e course materials that
teaches the same tasks as the current texts do. eg: Word processing or
browsing the internet. He also gave us the textbooks as a reference.
This syllabus is for 5,6,7 classes and will be same for all classes.
i.e all of them will be taught the same things.

3. The following things must be taught - using a GNU/Linux desktop , a
few basic commands, image editing ( GIMP ) , Document processing (
Openoffice ), some kind of programming introduction (KTurtle ).  A set
of course materials involving this is _very crucial_ now - if we can
deliver something that teaches these things now, the FOSS education
front will start moving smoothly there.

4. The above course plus installation should be taught to the teachers
before June 2. So its crucial to come up with the syllabus in a very
short period - we need more involvement from volunteers who can do
this.  We have at most 2 days.

5. He has asked us to give a proposal on FSUG letterhead about
allotting a classroom every month for our meetings (on a weekend) .
This can lead to Christ Nagar School being the point from where we can
plan our further moves.

6. He wants BlueJ editor installed on all PCs


@Prasad, please add your opinions/observations if I have left out or
misrepresented anything from the meeting.

If you are interested, and the college will permit,SPACE can do a

Re: [fsug-tvm] Need a trainer for Gnu+Linux IDE, preferably NetBeans

2010-05-26 Thread BINNY THOMAS
Hi everyone,

I am a student of Mary Matha college. Most of the students in the IT
department are ignorant about Linux in general. Those who have heard about
Linux have many misconceptions about it including the teaching staff. This
is our golden opportunity to show the students what Linux is all about.

The plan is to convert all the computers in the college computer lab to
Linux.That way all students can become familiar with it. That is the easy
part. The trouble is that these labs are used in University exams and
currently run on Windows  and use the outdated Borland Turbo C++ IDE.

We need to convince the staff about the need to migrate to newer software
and that there are much better IDE's in Linux. Otherwise the effort would be
a complete flop.

We need users who have a lot of experience with Linux IDE's and share them
with the staff  in the college.

Regards,
Binny
