<h2>Education</h2>
</div>
<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.
</p>
<p>
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.
</p>
<h3>Associations</h3>
<p> The Free Software Foundation has
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/education/">separate pages on education</a>.
</p>
<p> There are already some organizations which support and advocate the
use of Free Software in education:
</p>
<ul>
<li> The <a href="http://www.ofset.org/">Organization for Free Software
in Education and Teaching</a> (OFSET) promotes the development of free software
for the educational system and teaching. OFSET is an associated organization of
the FSF Europe.
</li>
<li> The <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/osie">Open Source in Education</a>
Project (OSiE) supports and advocates the use of GNU/Linux systems in the UK.
</li>
<li> The <a href="http://fsub.schule.de/">Freie Software und Bildung e.V.</a>
(FSuB e.V., Association for Free Software and Education) promotes the use of GNU/Linux
systems in German schools.<br/>
Please note that the FSuB e.V. also accepts the use of proprietary software on top of
GNU/Linux, a position with which we strongly disagree.
</li>
</ul>
