🤝We work closely with schools, educators & some of the world’s biggest tech companies like @ArmEducation & @MSMakeCode to help implement computing education💻. We've also partnered with @codeorg on these new resources for CS Fundamentals

I love delivering our @UCanTooTech Drone Assault Course workshop. Thursday's Students said they loved using computing creatively & applying it in ways they would have never thought possible.
Purposeful learning with a huge dollop of fun! @MGGS_ @STEMLearningUK @STEMLearning_AS
I delivered our hub's termly Crumble course yesterday. As usual, the teachers went away very enthused & are looking forward to using their loan kits with their classes :)
Courses nearly always fall just before a term ends. The next course for Kent will be 26th Mar.
@CompHubKent
If you're in an English maintained school, there's FREE Crumble training up-for-grabs! teachcomputing.org/courses/C… better yet, eligible schools will be PAID to do the course
Can you believe these were made from start to finish by year 2 children (ages 6-7) in just one day!
What an amazing group to work with; their hard work is shown in the results of their builds including programming to control their makes using #microbits & @elecfreaks' Ring:bit
Such a fantastic class to work with! We really enjoyed supporting pupils in making their automatons using multiple cams & followers. A total of 16 automatons were built, with pupils adding the animals they would like to travel with if they were the main character of this book 😁
Yesterday we had the pleasure of working with the lovely year six children of Our Lady Hartley Primary School who built #microbit controlled automatons inspired by the fantastic book by @charliemackesy - The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse.
Such great ideas!
We had plenty of interest in the DIY directional arrows we had at #Bett2024! We have plenty of ideas for you on our blog 😊 redfernelectronics.co.uk/diy…

We're excited to be back in the office to investigate some of the new tech from @elecfreaks we picked up at #Bett2024 - we're looking at innovative ways to incorporate #microbit into our Arcade games and adding #AI content to our workshops!

After visiting #Bett2024 we're very excited about investigating how these Climate Action Kits from @Forward__EDU can be used in schools to build on our previous work on climate action.
You can check out some of our previous projects here: ucantoo.org.uk/talking-tech/…

We're looking forward to generating lots of ideas for combining @MakeyMakey with #microbit in some of our workshops! Two of our favourite pieces of tech together; another great find at #Bett2024!

It's hard to believe this was 2 weeks ago!
What a day we had celebrating the semester-long programme working with local Realschule students in Davos. We loved partnering with @salesforce once again to make a difference with students through purposeful climate-related activities!
Just finished our 8th amazing year partnering with the local public Davos school district on Davos Codes. Thank you to team Salesforce and our partners on making #davoscodes a huge success again. ❤️
Hi @MissPhilbin, It was to have missed you at the BETT Connect lounge. If you'd like to try again for another slot, please let me know.
We loved helping students bring their moving dioramas to life using @microbit_edu's #microbit v2 with @birdbraintech's #HummingbirdBit.
Students combined the tech with different mechanisms to achieve fantastic results at #DavosCodes #WEF24 with Salesforce
Amazing day on Monday working with @Salesforce and the young people of #DavosCodes showcasing their work for the #WEF - building #microbit dioramas to represent each of their climate-related projects in which they've used technology to collect data and monitor the environment.
Another year in Switzerland, delivering the wonderful #DavosCodes programme on behalf of & in collaboration with @Salesforce. The students achieved great things & did themselves, the Oberstufe School, Salesforce, & U Can Too very proud, on Monday & at Marc's Lunch on Thursday!

What a creative collection of monster makers we had at our Halloween Monster Zoo workshop.
Feedback from both the children & their parents was amazing. With several booking onto our Christmas workshops the same day!

We had a fun day at our Halloween-themed workshop yesterday! The children all really enjoyed coding and building their robot monsters using #microbit
