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!

@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.
