Computing education folks - can anyone suggest resources for learning Lua for 14 year olds? My normal sources of tutorials don't have anything (e.g.
@raspberrypiorg.bsky.social
)! I was asked during a Python workshop last week & would love to be able to get back to her with some advice!

This was such a great day! Well done to the whole team for putting it all together, I was very impressed (and am definitely planning to use some of the resources with my groups too!)

Yay my new robot design is all up & running! ๐ค sorted out the power issues (switched to 18650 batteries, seems to be working ๐ค) ๐ค 3D printed a connector for the grabbing servo (only took 9 revisions ๐คฃ) All ready for April's computing club (well, this one is... 15 more robots to upgrade!)

FAO: UK Computer Science school teachers and Computer Scientists in universities, industry, public sector. Here's a fun way to inspire young people about computing as a subject (and perhaps careers) by answering their questions in moderated text-based live chats.

One of my

students wants to make a bracelet/armband using a string of neopixels, so that they spiral between the wrist & elbow. I'm after ideas for what they can use as a framework to support the pixels to stay in place, please ๐

I'm very happy with how this year's Computing Club Project is going! Code is working ๐ค so I'm finalising the CAD workshop. Waiting for v2 of my PCB so I can transfer the measurements to TinkerCAD for the young people to create their own. Excited to see what creative designs they come up with ๐

Making the most of my day off by baking matcha cookies to enjoy while I do my Japanese homework! It's my third time attempting matcha cookies, two different recipes, always bland ๐ (though I doubled the matcha!). They look pretty though ๐๐ต
