Here at the Free and Open Source Software Foundation (http://fwioo.pl/ 
) we have a 3-year programme creating teaching materials, 
implementation examples, class scenarios, etc., based purely on FLOSS, 
and testing them in school groups (~10 students, ~60 groups in 
Poland). Arduino is a part of the fun. Here's the link:

This is, unfortunately, only in Polish at this time, but we are 
looking at ways we could translate it to English. Everything will be 
available on libre licenses (GPL for code, CC-By or CC-By-SA for 
materials).

We hope to have some English materials on it on CeBIT2013 in March. We 
will be there with a booth.
