<br />
CAMEMIS - open source school information management system. Version 1.0 is due for release in June and it will be available in several different languages. I have been tracking the development of several open source school information systems (OpenSIS, OpenAdmin etc.) but I believe that CAMEMIS will become the leader in this field. I was so impressed by the development that I joined the development team! You can preview CAMEMIS at <a href="http://www.camemis.com" target="_blank">www.camemis.com</a>.<br />
<br />
These and other Open Source Solutions for schools have been included in our Open4Ed initiative and can be seen at <a href="http://www.open4ed.com" target="_blank">www.open4ed.com</a><br />

Talking of Open Source Software, I wanted to point this community to an article titled <a href="" target="_blank">'Introducing your child to Linux'</a> authored by an active and well-respected member of the Classroom 2.0 community :) In addition to links to several linux-based software tools for kids in the article itself, the comments section has ideas for kid-friendly F/OSS software shared by parent readers of SmartBean.

Hi, My students really like PhotoStory. Great tool to help them start their writing, especially descriptive writing. We also do a lot of pod casting using audacity. Especially like Picasa for combining short video clips into one long movie. Glad I stumbled upon this site. Anyone interested in using Skype with a 4th grade class this next year?
