A teacher's perspective
summary
Education track reports concrete outcomes: workshops teach Minecraft + Python, physical computing with LEDs and motors, and object‑orientation for secondary teachers; breakout sessions pair educators with developers so teachers and developers co-author resources and libraries and solve deployment issues — for example ported Little Man Computer to the Raspberry Pi in an afternoon. Workshops also produce practical classroom setups (local GitLab for private student repos), boost teacher confidence, seed Code Club partnerships, and leave kids building working projects that run and delight.
