Hello World
Are you an educator who’s passionate about computing and digital making? If so, this is the podcast for you!
Join hosts from the Raspberry Pi Foundation as we chat with teachers, researchers, and learners from around the world to discuss the latest research, debate the big questions, and provide practical tips to help you engage and educate young people in computing. We’ll be releasing a new podcast series to coincide with each new issue of the Hello World Magazine to continue the conversation.
We’d love to hear from you! As we trial new episode formats, welcome additional hosts, and endeavour to produce regular episodes, we’d really appreciate your honest feedback about what you find informative, engaging, and, most importantly, helpful. Drop us an email on podcast@helloworld.cc and subscribe to the Hello World Magazine for free at http://helloworld.cc
