Today in the morning I successfully held the first Linux course in my teachers schooling series. The topic was installation of Skolelinux. It went very well and I think the students actually understood most of my Spanish. Juan blogged the whole class (though in Spanish).
They were very enthusiastic and one of the teachers (or students rather - for a short time) started to investigate and looking for many programs. I showed them the Gaim instant messenger and they liked it. Also they were blown away by my description of diskless thin clients. The before-mentioned teacher is thinking about setting up a few Pentium 1 computers at his home. With thin clients that could be easily done. So I’ll show them how to do this in the network administration course.
As the installation part is now finished, I’ll directly continue with system administration next Tuesday. I had originally planned on two days of installation.
There are pictures of the class in Flickr account but they are only available to my friends for privacy reasons.
