==== Using Ubuntu without installation ====
You may be unable to install Ubuntu on your computer, or you may be using a computer belonging to your institution, which does not allow you to install Ubuntu. In such a case, you could use still Ubuntu, by connecting a pen drive with bootable Ubuntu to your computer and using the 'Live' option.
(Of course, you should discuss with your institution, the benefits of using FOSS tools and platforms and encourage and persuade them to be open to allowing staff to installing FOSS tools on their systems. Such installation can be done alongside other applications on the computers, so there is no flip side to this).
