Please can we market OpenOffice to more educational institutions?
Hi, I feel OpenOffice has much more value than competing products. I find this very sad news: AICTE Makes Microsoft Office 365 Mandatory For Technical Colleges In India! - http://www.efytimes.com/e1/fullnews.asp?edid=104544 Could we please educate 'educational' institutions so that they have more value, save money and hopeful give back to OO? Any suggestions? Thanks, Paul - To unsubscribe, e-mail: marketing-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: marketing-h...@openoffice.apache.org

Spain has produced a lot of courseware and educational curriculum for elementary and secundary education. As far as college, I think it can be done. OOoAthors, now ODF authors has a very good array of books that can be easily transform into textbooks (with excercises, cases and such). Althought some more specialized type of education, like Finance and Accounting with Calc, would need a bit more work. However I like the book by Gabriell Gurley on more practical use of OpenOffice.org http://www.amazon.com/Conceptual-Guide-OpenOffice-org-Second/dp/0977899179 On 4/20/13, Frans Thamura fr...@meruvian.org wrote: i am working with education in Indonesia we use openoffice to education here. yes has been years, more than 8 years we never see ms.office the key is education material, and curriculums i love be part of this work.

During one of the students internship there was a lot of Phisics, and Math problems developed in Excel, on somehting called Excellets, he was able to convert 20 to calc. Original excelets http://academic.pgcc.edu/~ssinex/excelets/chem_excelets.htm Localized and converted calclets http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/User_talk:Luis-kp#MODELOS_MATEM.C3.81TICOS. I guess is just a matter to re-localize to the target language.
