Hull at the ICT Conference

Talking Pi

Talking Pi

Today Mike and I took a bunch of Raspberry Pi systems to a teachers conference for the day. Great fun. Particularly if, like me, you contrive to arrive just after all the machines have been carried in and set up. Actually we have got this off to a bit of an art now. We have a kind of Pi road show which consists of a bunch of Ikea bags containing the monitors (the heavy bits) and a couple of boxes with all the other parts that we need to run the systems. Anyhoo, we set up shop and then talked Scratch, Python, Hardware and the philosophy of education and the role of teaching programming.

Then we packed it all back into Mike's car boot and left.
