- Gretools
- Gretools is a vocabulary building tool for GNOME. It is a fun and efficient way to learn words. It uses a modified version of the word list at http://pllab.kaist.ac.kr/~gladius/gre/, which has about 4000 words. Gretools consists of a synonym quiz and a word guessing game. It also allows you to look up words. It automatically remembers the words that gave you difficulty, and lets you revise them. You can set a filter to restrict the space of words used for practice. It is particularly useful for preparing for word tests.
- Ignuit
- iGNUit is a memorization aid based on the Leitner flashcard system. It has a GNOME look and feel, a good selection of quiz options, and supports UTF-8. Cards can include embedded audio, images, and mathematical formulae (via LaTeX). iGNUit can import and export several file formats, including CSV. iGNUit can be used for both long-term learning and cramming.
- KLearningAid
- 'KLearningAid' pops up kvtml file items on the desktop. Using KWordQuiz or FlashKard, produce kvtml files and load them into Klaid. It will grab all complete n x m related items (e.g. "Question" and "Answer", or "Word A" and "Word B") and display them periodically as PopUps on the your desktop. It is like someone is sitting behind you making sure you know all the terms for your next exam or test while surfing the web, coding, or whatever.
- Kalcul
- The player has 16 cards with numbers. An operation is displayed on a small screen at the right of the board. You have to click on the right answer on the board. The card with the answer disappears. Kalcul supports addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. There are 3 levels: easy, medium and hard.
- Kronophobia
- 'Kronophobia' is a complete event-based school calendaring system that supports recurrence, transportation assignments, alerts, parent/public registration, custom reports, event tracking, and e-mail notification.
- Ksociograma
- 'ksociograma' is a tecnical software for teachers. It lets teachers make sociograms, a 2D network representation, for a group of students. It is very useful to understand and predict inter-group relations. The package is currently available in English, Italian and Spanish.
- LPT Interface
- The 'LPT Interface' application is great for students. With 'LPT Interface' pupils can control the parallel port's Data Port (eight bits) and to see the value of the Status Port Bits (four bits: 4,5,6,7).

- LinSmith
- linSmith is a Smith charting program mainly designed for educational use. As such, there is an emphasis on capabilities that improve the 'showing the effect of'-style of operation. Users can enter either discrete components or transmission lines, then see the results on screen or generate Postscript output. Component values can be changed numerically or using scrollbars. Problems can be solved on-screen, and high-quality Postscript can be output for publication.
Its features include
- Definition of multiple load impedances (at different frequencies)
- Addition of discrete (L, C and transformer) and line components (open and closed stubs)
- Connection in series and parallel
- A 'virtual' component switches from impedance to admittance to help understand parallel components
- Charts that work in real impedances (not normalized ones)
- Generates a 'log' file with textual results at each intermediate step
- Stores load and circuit configuration separately, permitting several solutions without re-defining the other.
- Marble
- Marble offers different kind of beautiful and useful map views of the Earth including OpenStreetMap. It can also search for place names and suggest routes.
