The long-running (and quite superb, by all accounts) Cotswold Raspberry Jam is making an early 2017 appearance on Saturday 28th January. The event runs from 1-4pm and takes place at the University of Gloucestershire, Park Campus, Cheltenham. Free tickets are available here and you can read more about the Cotswold Jams on their website.
Thanks, Mike. The lineup so far is:
* Distance Measurement Sensor tutorial – Python coding and the HC-SR04 sensor – attendees get to take home a complete kit
* Tutorial to install the Apache web server and code a web page in HTML
* Build a Minecraft Village – workshop to code a Minecraft house in Python and then duplicate many houses to quickly create a village
* Talk by Cerys Lock, Digital Girl of the Year 2016
* Micro PiNoon – balloon-popping war robots
* RetroPie demos – play classic games for as little as £10 using a Raspberry Pi Zero and a USB games controller – lots of these will be set up for people to play with
* Show and Tell – bring your own project to show off, or get help with a half-completed project
Tickets are free, donations are entirely optional. Our events typically have around 120-150 attendees, mostly children and parents but a good showing from local tech enthusiasts. We have an entire building with 4 computer labs and a lounge courtesy of the University of Gloucestershire. Bring your own Pi if you have one, or use dozens of ours – the University provide scores of monitors, mice and keyboards. Free parking and a bus stop a stone’s throw away! See our website http://www.cotswoldjam.org for more details.
Thanks Andrew – sounds like quite the line-up!
