AbulEdu LeTerrier

“Le Terrier d'AbulÉdu” covers a series of free software meant for schools and colleges : they have been created one by one, for the last past ten years, by teachers for other teachers.

Their specificity lies in the way they have been developped : instead of being a one-way work, each of them is the result of numerous exchanges, often for months, between teachers and developpers. Here is the reason why the abuledu-fr association has been created, in order to keep in touch with users and to maintain a strong link between both communities. [Less]
