Two ninth graders are shown using the Bazzite gaming distribution (built from Fedora Kinoite with KDE Plasma): https://bazzite.gg/. The students flashed the USB drive and installed the operating system all by themselves.
A group of students are shown installing GNU/Linux on discarded computers. The students have just learned about how software can be responsible for environmental harm. In the background the slides used in the presentation, including the KDE Eco logo, are visible.
The Akademie der Spiele logo, which is a red circle on a blue background with Akademie written in yellow and all other text in white. The location of the event is written at the bottom: "In den Herrenhäuser Gärten".

This is such a good idea. Are there teaching materials available?

KDE Eco

@hecklerundkochli Thank you! There are not many materials yet as the Opt Green project is still in the beginning stages.

All materials will be collected at the project repository: invent.kde.org/teams/eco/opt-g.

And eventually they will be included in a how-to e-book for GNU/Linux installations from an environmental perspective.

We will continue to post updates in the project, so keep an eye here for news 🙂
