<h3>General</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p> The Free Software Foundation Europe actively promotes the
|
|
|
|
|
use of Free Software in schools and universities. Free Software
|
|
|
|
|
is pedagogically and technologically superior to proprietary
|
|
|
|
|
systems. But more importantly, its basic spirit involving freedom and cooperation
|
|
|
|
|
is the same spirit of education in a democratic environment.

We have a more <a href="argumentation.en.html">detailed argumentation</a>
|
|
|
|
|
which sums up why we think that Free Software
|
|
|
|
|
is the kind of software which should be used in education.
