Dear all,
On behalf of ILUGC, myself conducted a one day awareness program on FOSS in
J.J. College of engineering and technology, Near Trichy for the 2nd year
CSE, IT and MCA students totalling 250+.
Topics covered:
Why Free / Open Source Software so important in engineering education
Ubuntu 10.04 installation from DVD
Introduction to office, internet, multimedia tools
Development tools in FOSS
Big Buck Bunny/sixth sense technology movie
It was also decided to setup 3 separate FOSS labs for each dept. and
do their further practicals in GNU/Linux.
They are also interested in conducting FOSS workshops for MCA/ME
departments.
I would like to thank Director Dr. V.Shanmuganathan, Principal Dr.
V.Sivaramakrishnan, HODs of CSE/IT/MCA for the support in organizing the
program.
Regards
S. Baskar
