-<p>Being a free software user isn't easy, especially when you're a
-college student. I spent a year at a school that taught Visual Basic
-as its primary programming language for freshmen and sophomores, where
-"Introduction to Programming" was an overview of the Windows OS, and
-where most of the professors would only accept papers typed in Times
-New Roman -- and I survived. In this session, I'll give students tips
-for making it through college while still adhering to the values we
-hold as free software users -- including alternative fonts, making a
-GNU/Linux live disk for use on public computers, avoiding the "Netflix
-and Chill" dilemma, and most importantly, ways to discuss free
-software with professors and fellow students. After leaving this
-session, students will feel empowered and able to hold their own as
-free users in a proprietary campus.</p>
+<p>The bad news is that educational technology has largely failed to deliver on its promise. Its focus on efficiency rather than on learning has resulted in a further reinforcement of education as a system of instruction to curricula rather than one of student construction of knowledge. The good news is that Free/Libre Software can help, not just because it tends to focus on putting powerful tools into the hands of its end users, but also because Free/Libre Software espouses a culture of doing and sharing in a context of critique, reflection, and personal responsibility. In this session, we will review some tangible ways in which Free/Libre Software is and can have a positive impact on education and some things we can and should be doing better. We'll then discuss strategies for advocating for Free/Libre Software in education systems both in the US and globally. The next generation of computer users are in school today. We need to ensure that they take advantage of the opportunities afforded by Free/Libre Software.</p>
