Computing as a subject is constantly on the move. There are always new technological breakthroughs and new products to try.
I have created a blog-based website which is easy to change and update.
To facilitate this type of Computing in schools operating costs need to be kept to a minimum.
Open Source Computers mini-computers are low in cost. There are a number of these units of which the most well-known is the British made- raspberry pi.
There are also several free
programming languages e.g. Python or Scratch.
Using a free programming language such as Scratch will encourage students to use the critical skills of problem-solving, analytical thinking, modelling, evaluating and design (Royal Society, 2012),
Computing at Schools promote Innovative Computing through targeted CPD training for Computing teachers. The Technocamps
website has a wide range of free courses for educators to use in a club or camp setting.
