Nice, It will be a blow to uplift the thoughts of fossians over the country. Our team here in chitwan successfully held the one day orientation program at Unique Academy-Tandi, Chitwan where around 100 students were actively participated. The program update will be available soon to you all fossians. Thanxs to the IOE FOSS magazine which was a attraction with Freedom Toaster. 50 Students were feeded by Freedom Toaster too. The program added a excitement and power to fossians here and we are discussing to spread it to over 78 schools of chitwan in mid november
We will lobby all the schools to have a foss curriculum. My idea is that many of schools who give computer skills upto 7 and eight can be targeted to test the foss curriculum. If any one curriculum specialist prepare the curriculum from 4 class to 8 then we can have them to the schools and lobby school administration to use the course as they treat the computer subject in vocational subject. isn't it good.
