EdubuntuServer
Blueprint page for the "School Server in a Box" Edubuntu Server idea.
Summary
This blueprint is to help coordinate the work around the Edubuntu Server installer/application. The concept is a single installer that would let a school setup an Edubuntu Server that included: "moodle, schooltool, koha and perhaps even some centralised authentication using something like gosa" (quote from highvoltage), exact apps to be discussed at UDS-N. The idea is to get "a school environment running really fast, cheap and easy (a combination of 3 that's hard to get)."
Recommended Services/Applications
Moodle - Learning Management System Open SIS - Student Information System SchoolTool - Administration tools; gradebooks, attendance openLDAP Koha ? Gosa ? SugarCRM - customer relationship manager, useful for tracking alumni, vendors, funding sources
