I am a social studies and technology teacher at Aspen Academy in Savage, MN. Our school uses Linux and open source software in several of our classrooms. These computers were provided to the classes by the Penguin Corps, our school's Linux club. The Penguin Corps is a diverse group of boys and girls who have fun after school learning how to become technology leaders.
For tips on how to start a Linux club of your own, go to The Linux Guide (www.linuxclubguide.com).
I am also husband, married to a wonderful woman for 24 years, and the father of two great kids. We make our home in South Saint Paul, MN.

Great article, Jim! You not only told a great story about how to make Linux practical in a real world setting, but also gave some great tips on how to make it happen elsewhere. I will be sharing this story with the Asian Penguins when we start up again in September. Let me know if you would be up for a visit, either you here or us there.
Excellent article! I'm sure that there are many of us using Linux that had no idea where it would lead us. Well, let's enjoy the ride!
