CALLING ALL TEACHERS!

We’re excited to announce that our 2024 Education Conference will take place on Thursday, 24th October, at Swansea.com Stadium!

This event is designed for primary and secondary school educators. Engage in hands-on workshops and gain valuable insights to enhance your teaching methods and embrace the new curriculum for Wales.

Primary Teacher Sessions:

• Unplugged Activities for the New Curriculum: Learn how to incorporate unplugged activities that align with the progression steps of the new curriculum for Wales. These activities will help pupils develop essential computational thinking and problem-solving skills without the need for computers.
• Data Logging with micro:bit: Discover how to use the micro:bit for data logging activities in your classroom. Engage pupils in collecting and analysing data through interactive and practical projects, making learning both fun and informative.

Secondary Teacher Sessions:

• Inspiring More Girls in Computing: Hear from Rachel Roberts from Gowerton Comprehensive about her experience of increasing the number of girls taking computing subjects.
• Transitioning from Scratch to Python with Pytch: Explore Pytch, a powerful tool designed to help pupils transition from block-based programming in Scratch to text-based programming in Python. Equip your pupils with the skills they need to advance in their coding journey.
• Cross-Curricular Applications of micro: Learn how to integrate micro:bit into various subjects across the secondary curriculum and programming them in Python. Discover innovative projects that make learning more engaging and relevant by incorporating technology into different areas of study.

Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with fellow practitioners in Wales, share ideas, and take away practical tools and techniques to transform your classroom. Together, let’s inspire and educate the next generation of digital innovators!
