Well, not my kids, but my very own school looks like this:
All Mircosoft Windows PCs, all "upgraded" to Windows 10.
They all have free software solutions pre-installed, like Libre-Office, but those are only used by me.
The
Computer have the tendency to be very slow even though, they have good
CPUs and turn themself off for no reason whatsoever, but what else is to
expected by a Windows.
The
schools i have went to before had all Microsoft Windows, ranging from
Windows XP to Windows 7, and of course they were also very slow.
They
however didn't even have Libre-Office, but I didnt bother back in the
day, because I didn't even know, what free software was. Had to teach
this myself years later.
The Lessons are tailored for Microsoftprogramms, all but me are using Microsoft Office.
I'm from germany and i am pretty sure, that every average school here looks like this.

Betreff: [libreplanet-discuss] What does the tech setup look like in your grade school?
I am developing a ready-out-of the-box, open
source virtual
remote desktop platform and would like to investigate its
deployment in school
systems. My assumption is
that most
schools are using proprietary technologies (Mac/PC) for the most
part and that
a switch to Linux based platforms would bring cost savings. However, I know very little
about the current
technology setups in schools near me – let alone schools elsewhere
in the U.S.
(where I'm based) or the world. I
would
like to hear from people who have kids, what does their school
technology setup
look like?
Thanks!
