📣 Be part of micro:bit research study! The EPICS project needs teachers to do a short micro:bit class activity and surveys, to find out the longer-term impact of using physical computing activities. EPICS is run by the @RaspberryPi_org Computing Education Research Centre at the University of Cambridge. 📚 If you take part, you can enter into a prize draw for some computing-related books for your school library 🙌 computingeducationresearch.o… #teachers #coding #microbitChampion

Since he was in school @b_gallagher2 always loved technology. So he went back to his old school, Scoil Cholmcille An Tearmann in Donegal to meet some amazing inventors who he heard were a chip off the old motherboard. Check this out.

Last year, working in Ireland, having a pint in the cold outside a Dalkey pub with some new friends, a woman with purpose strode past us. Puffy parker zipped to the nape and her bowed head covered in a scarf. One of my new friends muttered an exclamation, jumped up
