Hi Folks!


Lots of interesting new news from the CK-12 Foundation.  Although the 
foundation started as a source of FREE, open source "flex-books" (a book that 
can be customized by the user), written for California students/schools., They 
are offered now to anyone who wants to use them, worldwide.  At first they had 
only a few secondary school math (Algenra I) and science books, but now they 
are reaching both up and down to elementary school and high school. 


Check this email to learn more about the following, exciting new developments 
with volunteer opportunities, new titles, a collaborative flex-book writing 
project for biology students worldwide, and job opportunities for software 
developers:


Check it out! Follow the links to get more info.

P.S.  If someone has the time, it would be great to look at ways these 
flex-books can be used on the XO.  Maybe I can help later during the summer.
