You should download a FOSS software application relating to an area of your interest (from the Applications -> System Tools -> Software option in the menu), this could be an educational application in Mathematics or Geography, or it could be a language game or puzzle. Use the application and share your experiences in using this application in a mail with your classmates and ask them to try the same.

You should visit popular OER websites and search for resources on the topic relevant to you. You can refer to the [https://teacher-network.in/OER/index.php/Teachers%27_toolkit_for_creating_and_re-purposing_OER_using_FOSS Teachers' toolkit for creating and re-purposing OER using FOSS] to identify OER sites for text, image, audio and video resources. You can make changes to the OER downloaded and then share it back by uploading to the site (where it is allowed) or by email with your classmates. Mention the license in the revised OER you have created and provide the attributions to the source of the OER.
