Hi All,

TuxReader - http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/tuxread/

KidsOpenICDL - ICDL type of course, tailored for Kids, Teaching the basics of Computing, OpenOffice - PenPal letters and the like to teach WordProcessing, TuxPaint, etc.

Generic Course Material ( CCM ) that helps teachers start teaching classes, then they can build onto the course for their own lectures

Hope this helps

William

OK, thanks, but this still doesn't answer my original, really basic
question: what does a "literacy package" do? What do you use it for?
Learning to read and write with a computer? What else?

Thanks,
