Gabor, it's worse than that. I don't know what programs they want to install, but I heard a talk on reshet bet few days ago (program of keren noibach).
First, they mentioned that it's not legal to ask the parents to buy notebooks/tablets etc due to discrimination. There are parents who can't afford it. So the ministry of education understood they made a mistake and started to drop off the idea. Second, technically they started to install some programs (before they understood that their actions are not legal) and couldn't install everything, because they are not well prepared. They have a mess there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6NfZMlZoQ8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVfHaRNQD2A http://www.ifat.com/VT/Trans.aspx?ID=6010393&CID=100456 תמליל On Wed, Nov 19, 2014 at 1:53 PM, Mord Behar <mord...@gmail.com> wrote: > I don't know about students, but my mother is a teacher and she has to use > some legacy software that was written for Windows XP and fails on Win 7 > about 70% of the time.
