The first steps with the Raspberry Pi

Posted by sharland

I am a Head of ICT at a small girls school in Oxfordshire.  I say Head of ICT but with DfE putting in the boot to the subject (quite rightly I think) my title will probably be changing at some point.  I am leading the charge to develop a new subject called #digitalstudies which will encorporate both the essential digital literacy skills of the old ICT curriculum but also include programming, aspects of computer science as well basic engineering using something like the Pi or Arduino boards.

So what I would like to do is use this knowledge share feature to discuss how we get started with the Raspberry Pi in class and how we build up our resources and activities with the Pi being used by novice pupils and teachers.
