Learning to code gives the children a chance to learn this skill in their growing age that will go a long way with them throughout their life. I had to learning block coding very quickly on the job, as this wasn&#8217;t something I had a skillset in previously. As I learned more and became more competent, I wanted to be able to offer the students more, especially when we branched out into secondary schools, so learning to code using Python was next on the list for me to learn. This hasn&#8217;t come naturally, but something I continue to learn and build my skills and confidence in.  <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/lisacarrolldigitalinfluenceraward\/uploads\/sites\/40313\/2024\/06\/06135256\/replit-1024x496.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-156\" width=\"504\" height=\"243\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/lisacarrolldigitalinfluenceraward\/uploads\/sites\/40313\/2024\/06\/06135256\/replit-1024x496.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/lisacarrolldigitalinfluenceraward\/uploads\/sites\/40313\/2024\/06\/06135256\/replit-300x145.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/lisacarrolldigitalinfluenceraward\/uploads\/sites\/40313\/2024\/06\/06135256\/replit-768x372.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/lisacarrolldigitalinfluenceraward\/uploads\/sites\/40313\/2024\/06\/06135256\/replit-800x387.jpg 800w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/lisacarrolldigitalinfluenceraward\/uploads\/sites\/40313\/2024\/06\/06135256\/replit.jpg 1260w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 504px) 100vw, 504px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Staying Relevant<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:auto 19%\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>The world of technology continues to develop rapidly, so I try to keep up to date with digital developments by attending courses, having professional dialogues with colleagues, professional reading and listening to podcasts, to find out more about new apps, platforms, technologies, resources, AI etc. Then look at how these can be incorporated into education and developing Scotland&#8217;s young workforce.<\/p>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"361\" height=\"478\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/lisacarrolldigitalinfluenceraward\/uploads\/sites\/40313\/2024\/06\/06135558\/Hello-World-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-159 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/lisacarrolldigitalinfluenceraward\/uploads\/sites\/40313\/2024\/06\/06135558\/Hello-World-1.jpg 361w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/lisacarrolldigitalinfluenceraward\/uploads\/sites\/40313\/2024\/06\/06135558\/Hello-World-1-227x300.jpg 227w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 361px) 100vw, 361px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:20% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"105\" height=\"99\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/lisacarrolldigitalinfluenceraward\/uploads\/sites\/40313\/2024\/06\/06141301\/apple-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-166 size-full\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>I recently attended Apple workshops where we looked at <strong>engaging <\/strong>learners, <strong>scaffolding <\/strong>their learning and <strong>connecting<\/strong> learners.
