The first batch of school teachers from the Baroda High School completed a two day “Introduction to Linux and OpenOffice” training. The teachers were from all 4 schools of the group with about 10000 students(almost the size of a small university). openSUSE-Education will be reaching that many new users from this year onwards.
Presentation slides are available here. I’ve tried to put together slides that covers all aspects of Gujarat State Education Board’s(GSEB) Linux and Open Source curriculum for 11th and 12th standards. Share it with all the teachers you know 
The OpenOffice slides are from here.
The course ware to use when teaching/give to students is available here: Book 1 and Book 2.
All the participants of the course took home hot new openSUSE-Edu live DVDs.

It is really good idea to open Suse in Education.
However,if it opens together with our Kingsem thin client terminals,It will be more popular and costable.
Kingsem Thin Client is a terminal without CPU,hard disk,enabling users to surf the Internet,play games, and can realize Internet application of ASP,instant Messenger,Private E-mail, and office suites software,photo manager software,multimedia software and so on with no need to purchase standard host .
Kingsem Thin Client could turn 1 pc into 2-30 pc or more based on the host computer and shared the information resources with host .Each user can visit host resources safely,independently and synchronously. Take an example ,there are 30 staffs in an class, you only need to purchase I set standard computer , another 29 user only need to use Kingsem Thin Client instead .
