It is that time of year now:  back to school.

I wonder if this could make a good blog post.   Of course, AOO being
free is core part of the story.  But even better would be if we had a
"top 10" list of ways in which AOO is great for school.



1. Use the same software at home and at school without worrying about
licensing
2. Participate in the AOO community and provide useful things for others
while you learn
3. Fix broken Word documents
4. Provide choice and promote transferrable skills by using more than one
type of tool
5. Get a qualification referenced to the European Qualifications Framework


6. Fits nicely in a small/low income community's school budget.

7. Work in multiple languages.

8. use it on your llinux/win/mac machine

9. having all you need for the school in one suit/program (cause other projects 
which has to make money trying to split up the programs like one program for 
writing onother for drawing to make more money)

10. possible to open other formats like .doc (maybe note that it does not work 
perfect because it's a propritary/closed format) but works mostly

maybe also note some features that are new to 4.0, like the optional side bar 
which makes the work easier and faster.

If you also want to mention that there are still some things missing, here are 
my most wanted/missing featured I still remember from shool:
(of course there are more things like  Inserting a bibliographic reference int a 
frame (e.g. image frame) (->will show up allways as [0]))

#create a 3d surface chart (surface plots)
#save the annotations in impress
(don*t know if these  are still missing)

11. Use it from USB-stick and so work everywhere using your personal settings, even if AOO is not yet installed on your friends PC. "German: digitale Schultasche"

Kind regards
Regina
