Martin O’Hanlon will be leading teachers in Google Digital Garage
Educating students of all ages in embedded design continues to be an important part of the activities of the Raspberry Pi Foundation.
Its programme of training teachers in embedded design based on Raspberry Pi is continuing apace with the numbers of Raspberry Pi-certified educators growing through its training events called Picademies.
It has set up five regional Picademies in the UK and with the support of Google a new Picademy in Birmingham.
Dubbed the Google Digital Garage, the Birmingham centre will be used by classroom teachers of any subject at primary, secondary or post-16 level.
The courses and workshops at the original Picademy in Leeds are run by renowned community member Les Pounder, who gives much of his time to helping adults and children create weird and wonderful projects.
At the Picademy@Google in Birmingham, Raspberry Pi community member and Minecraft wizard Martin O’Hanlon will be leading teachers in the the Raspberry Pi Foundation’s free CPD course.
The opening of the Google Digital Garage at the Library of Birmingham was attended by Eileen Naughton, MD of Google UK and Ireland, and Sajid Javid, Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills.
All training events in Birmingham are free to attend and the following dates are available:
- 27th – 28th August
- 1st – 2nd October
- 2nd – 3rd November
- 7th – 8th December
