Purpose
CHSN Tech promotes technology as a tool for experimentation and learning at Clarkstown High School North, with a particular emphasis on:
FLOSS
FLOSS is software that is free of restrictions on usage, modification, distribution, and redistribution. Software developers give access to the software source code that determines how a program functions and release the software under liberal licenses which permit these uses. FLOSS has no licensing costs.
Free Culture
Free cultural works are text, images, music, video, or other media that can be freely studied, applied, copied, and modified. Free cultural works have no licensing costs.
Free Formats
Free formats are file formats that can be freely used by any person, organization, or computer program. HTML and PDF are examples of free formats.
GNU/Linux
GNU/Linux is the most popular FLOSS computer operating system.
