Lessons Plans for Teachers Using Free and Open Source Software

This site is dedicated to collecting and cataloging lesson plans for classroom teachers interested in moving beyond mere document production and really tapping in to the promise of technology integration and education.

This site is devoted to collecting and organizing lesson plans for teachers interested in using FOSS.

Contributors are welcome and encouraged.
