In a major shift, the schools in the city of Bern throw out #Microsoft software and will be using open source software instead. Meanwhile the #teachers are skeptical. It is said, that the decision might have a signal effect.

@steckerhalter They did the same a few years back (2004?) in the municipality of Munich; they are currently (?) planning to return to all M$ and all-windows-PCs by 2020 AFAIK :-/
@steckerhalter There are a lot of reactions - mostly negative. @sciss
@hikerus @steckerhalter Negative reactions from the teachers towards using open source?
@sciss I don't know if these people are teachers. But comments on news platform "Der Bund" to this linked article. @steckerhalter
@sciss Yeah, I know, but it's bound to happen sooner or later. I hope the people doing it in the schools of Bern are ready for the challenge narrow-minded teachers pose 😆
