It aims to make Ubuntu, the popular Linux-based operating system, a great choice for the computing needs of children, students, parents, teachers, and schools. It brings many of the best educational open-source applications and tools to the Ubuntu operating system.
"Ubuntu" is an ancient African word, meaning "humanity to others". Edubuntu seeks to bring the freedoms and spirit of Ubuntu to children, parents, students, teachers, and schools.
The Goals of Edubuntu are :
- Kids : Pre-school aged children should have educational and fun games.
