This is a bit of a spin off from my presentations at Victorian Information Technology Teachers Association’s Open Source day [see my blogposts 12.06.2009, 22.04.2004, 22.03.2009 & 15.03.2009]. Deb and I usually run an annual hands on session on freeware and / or opensource software at a MacSchoolsNet meeting. Members that come along get to have sandpit time with some of these apps. Since working for VITTA I have had a bit of time to explore Open Source applications and I have been very impressed. Even though the meeting is not until Thursday 3rd of September, I’ve got the presentation ready now. If you are interested you can download a .pdf of the presentation made with Open Office Impress.
