Edubuntu

Edubuntu's objective is to create an integrated and usable experience for educational users by enhancing Ubuntu with educational applications, tools, content, and themes.

"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.

Edubuntu distributes its enhancements through two means:

  • Ubuntu Education CD - the Ubuntu Education CD contains software fully supported by Canonical and the Edubuntu community. Commercial support may be purchased from Canonical for the applications found on the Ubuntu Education CD.
  • Application Bundles - the Edubuntu application bundles let you easily download groups of educational software from the official Ubuntu software repositories.
