:DATC: Intro to GNU/Linux Course Posted Online
DATC: Intro to GNU/Linux Course Posted Online
Mar 3, 2000, 20 :38 UTC (0 Talkback[s]) (3036 reads)

[ Thanks to TJ Miller jr for this announcement. ]

The course packet, which can be used as either a self-study/self-paced guide, or as an instructor packet, can be found and downloaded at the DATC website's just-opened Linux section.

Help Wanted: any and all help is greatly appreciated in helping to convert this packet into additional formats, and to report any technical errors/corrections as needed.

Suggestions for additions and improvements are always welcome.

So far, I have approximately 12 students in various stages of the course here, using the same packet, and I am updating and making any needed corrections as I go along.

All textbooks mentioned are available from Barnes and Noble, and the main textbook, Running Linux, is available directly from O'Reilly Press.

I apologize for not getting to everyone sooner, but I will certainly be on hand to take in comments, suggestions, corrections, and especially improvements. While this course is far from perfect, I can say that it will satisfy the proficiencies required of a basic Linux user, and I hope it serves as a solid beginning from which to build a world-wide public Linux curriculum.

Finally, I am currently working on two additional courses, slated for release and testing in July: One will involve Star Office (since we already have a course in MS Office, its only fair :) The second will tackle systems administration.
