One
of the challenges facing both students and teachers (parents too!!),
is that of starting projects which might lead them into the real
world. This is true especially for students who want to start selling
testing and/or new material. They obviously need to communicate with the outside
world. They need to start selling immediately. In most cases students are
short of money, hence they don't need to waste a lot of time in looking for solutions, neither to go for expensive solutions. They need to start and run their business online. In other words they need an ecommerce platform. What program one has to
use to start selling online?
As
usual we resort to free and open source programs which are available/compatible for/with many
operating systems. Today we presenting opencart. The second hurdle
is: how can one learn the program?
Well,
help is always available online. One has to click and go to the
suggested links.
