FlossedBk, "Free/Libre and Open Source Solutions for Education" is a two-day gathering of both new and experienced users of FLOSS, Free/Libre, Open Source Software, for education.  During the two days, there will workshops on everything from why schools should consider using FLOSS, to what the options are, and how best to make the transition, partial and/or full.  This is our first conference, but we are calling for representatives of as wide a range of needs as possible: teachers and principals, secretaries and technicians are invited to share and learn, as well as computing teachers, system administrators and programmers.

All workshops are presented in both Thai and English (with the help of translators). Thus each workshop is listed twice, once in English and once in Thai. Sign up for the one in your language to help us plan for translation help.

NOTE: Workshops are listed here and longer versions are shown in the Workshops section, but workshop choice is not available except to registered users. Please join us at FLossEdBk!
