Our good buddies over at Raspberry Pi are big into STEM. That's pretty obvious, really, given their flagship product (the Raspberry Pi) is every bit as useful for kids, as it is adults and retro gamers. And you already know about The MagPi; the official magazine for the Foundation, in which element14 and its members are regularly featured.
But the team behind The MagPi has teamed up with Computing At School (CAS), and they've been labouring on a brand new love, called Hello World. This is a print and digital publication, just like its older brother, except that the dead tree version of Hello World is also free to UK-based educators. Nice!
Here's the shtick:
Hello World has been written for anybody who’s introducing young people to computing and digital making, including primary and secondary teachers, volunteers, and parents. The magazine will be free for all, forever online, and free in print for teachers and educators based in the UK. Visit helloworld.cc to learn more.
It's aimed squarely at teachers, but includes anyone aiming to share their love of technology with the next generations (much as we've been doing actually, over at How Were You 'Bit by the Bug' of Engineering & Technology?). It's due to be published three times a year, and will cover subjects including physical computing, makers, educational methods, robotics in school, setting up maker spaces and Code Clubs and a whole lot, lot more.
Here's the official website, if you fancy checking out Hello World!
