<h1>Why Free Software matter in Education</h1>
<p>School and universities are the place where we teach the next generations
the values of our societies, but also the knowledge they need to find a
place in that society. It is also there that they learn how to use computer,
how to interact with internet, etc....<br/>Schools should teach children to be good members of the community, and schools should not provide product training for companies that do not respect freedom.</p>
<p> Amongst <a href="/freesoftware/education/argumentation.html">other arguments for deploying Free Software in schools</a>, here are four of the key benefits:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>Sharing:</strong> Using free software allows schools to
teach children to share and cooperate.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Learning to program:</strong> The possibility/freedom to
tinker motivates children to learn more.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Easy to administer:</strong> Free Software is stable,
secure and reliable. It offers unrestricted access to the source
code, thus allowing to modify or adapt it to the schools'
needs.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Licenses:</strong> With Free Software, teachers can give
a copy to each student. There is no risk to mislead any child
to use an illegal copy.
</li>
</ul>
