Tips: 

Ubuntu manual: daar gebruiken ze een tool: quickshot om screenshots te 
automatiseren. Je kan het natuurlijk ook scripten met imagemagick of als je het 
'grafisch' wil: xdotool. Er bestaat ook een java-toepassing om dit soort zaken 
te doen: sikuli. Je kan met sikuli ook gaan scripten en dus de ganse boel 
automatiseren. 
Bij alle voorstellen: omdat de ontwikkeling van unity nog niet ten einde is zal 
het in de toekomst waarschijnlijk weer gedeeltelijk manueel moeten gebeuren als 
je de cursus wenst up te daten. Daar kun je volgens mij niet onderuit. 

LaTeX gebruiken om die manual te schrijven. Zo is de import van afbeeldingen 
veel gemakkelijker. (denk dat ubuntu-manual ook in LaTeX is opgemaakt).

Onderwerp: Re: [Ubuntu-be] ubuntu courses 

The course is made by OpenSchool, a project of the Antwerp Municipality for 
adult education. It's really low threshold, for people with little or no 
education. They want to bring the computer to any household. 
So it's really basic stuff, from switching on to switching off, with lots of 
screenshots and step-by-step instructions. 


problem is, it's only on Windows. And that for an organisation that calls 
itself OpenSchool. 
Oh the humanity! 


I'd love to make an ubuntu version of it. 
Thing is though, Ubuntu has changed its look a couple of times in the past two 
years. 
So I'm holding off at least until 12.04 before making any screenshots. 
Does anyone have an idea of Canonical's intentions with their look for 12.04? I 
mean, I wouldn't want to spend dozens of manhours to compile all the necessary 
screenshots, only to find out that Canonical will come with a new look again 
the year after. 


Any ideas are welcome. You can write me in person, or, if you want to discuss 
this over the phone, ping me and I'll give you my phone number. 


Have a look at the zip file wouter shared. It's a hefty 170MB because of all 
the graphics, but I think it's a very useful document for the beginning user. 


Once compiled, we could use it for normal schools too. 


One of the main reasons why schools don't use anything but Microsoft, is 
because there aren't any good books available in the local languages. 
If we can compile a work like this, it might make Ubuntu much more attractive 
for the schools. 


Cheers, 
Jan.

hey guys, 


Janb found some courses about basic computing (that are used for adult 
education?) from a local educational center. They're made for windows, but it 
would be great to have them for ubuntu. 
Maybe jan can give some more info? 


anyhow, I've uploaded the courses to my webhost (since Drupal wouldn't allow me 
to upload the .zip file..):
