Hello All,
Thought of sharing this with all on the list. There's actually a course (a diploma course) that has a paper called "Fundamentals of Operating System - Linux OS", with GNU/Linux (or Linux based distro). So, there are courses that have exposure to GNU/Linux
(or
Linux based distros). The course is called "Diploma in Computer Programming"
And the link http://www.mu.ac.in/Department/udcs/Syllabus_DCP.htm
Ofcourse, as mentioned in one of the earlier BoF's, Elementary education needs to concentrate on logic and students would have to understand how to apply that.
As a student progresses, he would require a few special skills, and an OS like GNU/Linux (or Linux based distro) for System Administration would be good. Anyways, it need not limit to just a single OS. Similarly, programming paradigms are important as well.
