Cat Lamin is a former primary school teacher who now makes a living sharing her knowledge of education, particularly as it relates to computer science. She founded the Coding Evenings movement and is a regular at Raspberry Jams in the South East. She recently attended PyConUK and gave a talk titled “Why do kids need to learn to code?” It’s a terrific talk – it sums up the issues that teachers face with the new curriculum and looks at ways they can be helped, and help themselves. It’s not all Raspberry Pi-related, and it’s much more of an educators view of the world, but it really highlights some of the issues and some of the ways the Pi community can help.
You can view the video of her talk below and see the slides here.
