My understanding, actually, which involves the educational presentations we did in 2000, that the Department of Education is NOT ALLOWED to use anything other than materials approved for NYS Depart of Ed and that mean they needed to be approved by the board of regents of Florida and Texas? > After the try out period, instead of buying the text book set and distributing the text books, she took the textbooks from the trail set and made copies of it and distributed the copies as the text books. The money she would have spent on buying text books, she pocketed. How did she get cash? > Yet she would not touch the free Open Source material I offered her. Which is funny, because I used the Open Source material and my students scored higher on the NYS tests then the rest of the school. -- So many immigrant groups have swept through our town that Brooklyn, like Atlantis, reaches mythological proportions in the mind of the world - RI Safir 1998 http://www.mrbrklyn.com DRM is THEFT - We are the STAKEHOLDERS - RI Safir 2002 http://www.nylxs.com - Leadership Development in Free Software http://www2.mrbrklyn.com/resources - Unpublished Archive http://www.coinhangout.com - coins! http://www.brooklyn-living.com Being so tracked is for FARM ANIMALS and and extermination camps, but incompatible with living as a free human being. -RI Safir 2013 _______________________________________________ Hangout mailing list Hangout-at-nylxs.com http://www.nylxs.com/mailman/listinfo/hangout
