KDE Eco

9th graders learn Linux for the environment!

Last week in #Hannover, #KDEEco joined Akademie der Spiele, an event for 200+ students with 20+ career/cultural workshops.

Students salvaged dozens of computers with #OpenSource #FreeSoftware.

They learned about the #environmental costs of #eWaste and device production.

They presented their work to peers and teachers!

Some even played games🚀

We're proud of our students - congrats for all you achieved in only 5 days!

Two ninth graders are shown using the Bazzite gaming distribution (built from Fedora Kinoite with KDE Plasma): https://bazzite.gg/. The students flashed the USB drive and installed the operating system all by themselves.
A group of students are shown installing GNU/Linux on discarded computers. The students have just learned about how software can be responsible for environmental harm. In the background the slides used in the presentation, including the KDE Eco logo, are visible.

@be4foss @kde That's awesome to see children learning Linux and FOSS. When I was growing up it was all Windows in education. Only in universities did they introduce what Linux is

When I was growing up it was all Macs due to their scholastic program.
