Projects
Astronomy
See also ["DebianScience/Astronomy"] for more research-oriented packages.
EduXplanet (and its associated xplanet-images)
EduXtide (and xtide-data)
EduCelestia (n.b. Celestia has assimilated openuniverse project)
- ["EduSAODS9"]
EduXephem (non-free)
?SpaceWar (would be a start)
Biology
Debian contiains an increasing number of packages relevant to biology. The DebianMed project integrates them in a CustomDebianDistribution. Of course, any program can be educational in the sense that it can be used for training people. However, this page should be used to indicate programs particularly interesing for teaching or illustrating biology in a scholar environment. You can refer to ?DebianScienceBiology for a broader list which focuses on programs which were written for research.
To make this page useful, your input is most welcome!
Chemistry

The Chemical Development Kit ([http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=20024 deb], Java)
Not all of these packages are suitable for education, and they need to be studied for use.
There is a interesant java project http://ir.chem.cmu.edu/irproject/

http://www.claroline.net is a great php based e-learning app worthy of consideration
Moodle (http://moodle.org) has been translated into 26 languages and has many unique features for providing online courses. It can use mysql or postgresql (or commercial databases). It's written in modular PHP and has an excellent interface.
There's also ganesha : http://www.anemalab.org/ganesha/index.htm (in french however)
http://auc.sf.net/ is a web groupware application designed for schools, including a web-based email application. One nice feature is numerous translations are already available.
A system for Teachers to share their material under the Free Documentation License would be great, too!
Fle3 (http://fle3.uiah.fi/) is a learning environment being developed for use in the EU. It's multilangual and supports progressive inquiry and other constructive learning methods. It's a server software (Zope product) that is used with a browser. It's already debianized by the upstream authors.
["DotLRN"] [http://openacs.org/projects/dotlrn/] is a web groupware application designed for the e-learning. This application is using the openacs core [http://openacs.org/] developed in tcl's language and using postgresql database. We can find organizations like MIT's school developing this software.
