Some months back i posted about our bijra high school project
(http://bijra.dgplug.org) . A school completely running on Fedora 7
(GNOME) though all edu packages are installed( KDE included). LTSP 4.2
and rightnow no teacher are there students aged between 8 to 15 are
using those machines and learning by themselve. all you need to
initiate rest is a cakewalk.
There is a lot of collective experience with fedora in schools on the
K12ltp (K12OSN) mail list. Some of the discussion is about booting thin
clients, but once running, it all looks the same. There is a link to
the mail list from here:
