Re:Software This article deals with SERVERS (Score 1)

I am a high school math teacher who set up and starting a linux server specifically to run educational software. I found a great piece of OSS called WebWorK that allowed me to give my classes randomized, web-based homework. The server only runs on *nix, since the DB it works with doesn't exist for other OSes. Do the students get to work directly on the server, no. But the interested ones ask about it, and I show them how it works. That's called a teaching moment, and they are the reason I keep teaching.
