Hvis der ikke bliver lavet ny lovgivning, så vil de 53 kommuner, der har fået et påbud i forbindelse med brugen af Googles Chromebook-computere, ikke have andet valg end at droppe dem fra 1. august.

It’s a great option for schools. It’s free. It runs on low cost hardware. It reduces e-waste. It promotes a deeper understanding of IT. It promotes awareness of privacy issues, etc. Obviously, it requires more knowledgeable staff but it’s also not black magic. A few hours of instruction and you can set up one of the user friendly distros like a pro.
I personally think a problem with that is not every teacher is gonna be able to learn and understand it. Also, what happens when a teacher runs into a problem and accidentally breaks their setup? Or a student is somehow able to run sudo rm rf * despite some IT department trying to block access to commands like that?
As much as I’d love to see a Linux distro being used as a school’s operating system of choice, I think it’d be a nightmare trying to make sure all the staff know how it works, having to teach kids who have never used it what not to do, and making sure any weird software with almost no testing with WINE or Proton necessary for the school works.I know pretty much none of my teachers throughout highschool besides maybe a couple would be able to handle running Linux without breaking things. Though, I’m sure European teachers are better in general, so maybe they’d be able to handle it.
