Re: [LUG] BECTA Gone ...

 

WHile it's true for most of this, training costs will be minimal in an
easy-to-use system, most will need a brief intro. Think about it, most
staff don't even know how to use windows, and have to get hints from
kids. So they can help them here easier because it's what they'd use
at home, and all software by year 1 will be converted or found
alternatives to because the companies produicing the software would
lose money if they didn't.

Besides, what software do they need?
Logon, browse, do maths? Play on a whiteboard? All of that is there.
And UI improvements especially is what I'd like to be pushing to
schools with Bibud, which will be made easily rebranded by councils
etc.
