The One Laptop per Child initiative has had a huge impact around the world. The project rolls out durable, low-cost, low-power XO laptops to kids and teachers in more than 30 countries, encouraging equitable access to technology for learning. The software used on these laptops is developed using a flexible, open platform, a perfect starter for beginner coders.
In this series of workshops, join with software developer Clinton Roy, to learn how to adapt these open technologies for the XO laptop and to work with the group to create a piece of software that enables creative collaboration. You don’t need to be an experienced coder with Python, but please let us know what programming experience (if any) you have when you book.
When: 1-4pm, Saturday 16, 23, 30 July and 6 August
Where: Lab 2, The Edge
Cost: Free
