2023<\/strong>, we are delighted to be delivering a host of live lessons exploring different aspects of Computing Science.<\/p>\n<p>During this week you and and your learners can dive into Computing and learn new skills.\u00a0 We have practical code and create a long sessions as well as some unplugged activities broadly suitable for BGE levels 2\/3, and two especially for early level learners.<\/p>\n<p>Topics covered during this week include<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Data Science<\/li>\n<li>Coding<\/li>\n<li>Design<\/li>\n<li>Prototyping<\/li>\n<li>Physical Computing<\/li>\n<li>Unplugged Computational Thinking<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This week would not be possible without the support from:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Daniel Devine, Craig Steele <em>(Digital Skills Education, Data Education in
