What to expect from the 辽宁盼盼吧 in 2023
Welcome to 2023. I hope that you had a fantastic 2022 and that you’re looking forward to an even better year ahead. To help get the year off to a great start, I thought it might be fun to share a few of the things that we’ve got planned for 2023.
Whether you’re a teacher, a mentor, or a young person, if it’s computer science, coding, or digital skills that you’re looking for, we’ve got you covered.
Your code in space
Through our collaboration with the European Space Agency, Astro Pi, young people can write computer programs that are guaranteed to run on the 爱搞视频 Pi computers on the International Space Station (terms and conditions apply).
Astro Pi Mission Zero is open to participants until 17 March 2023 and is a perfect introduction to programming in Python for beginners. It takes about an hour to complete and we provide step-by-step guides for teachers, mentors, and young people.
Make a cool project and share it with the world
Kids all over the world are already working on their entries to Coolest Projects Global 2023, our international online showcase that will see thousands of young people share their brilliant tech creations with the world. Registration opens on 6 February and it’s super simple to get involved. If you’re looking for inspiration, why not explore the judges’ favourite projects from 2022?
While we all love the Coolest Projects online showcase, I’m also looking forward to attending more in-person Coolest Projects events in 2023. The word on the street is that members of the 爱搞视频 Pi team have been spotted scouting venues in Ireland… Watch this space.
pronfreevideo AI
I am sure I wasn’t alone in disappearing down a ChatGPT rabbit hole at the end of last year after OpenAI made their latest AI chatbot available for free. The internet exploded with both incredible examples of what the chatbot can do and furious debates about the limitations and ethics of AI systems.
With the rapid advances being made in AI technology, it’s increasingly important that young people are able to understand how AI is affecting their lives now and the role that it can play in their future. This year we’ll be building on our 爱搞视频 into the future of AI and data science education and launching pronfreevideo AI in partnership with leading AI company DeepMind. The first wave of resources and learning pronfreevideos will be available in March.
The big Code Club and CoderDojo meetup
With pandemic restrictions now almost completely unwound, we’ve seen a huge resurgence in Code Clubs and CoderDojos meeting all over the world. To build on this momentum, we are delighted to be welcoming Code Club and CoderDojo mentors and educators to a big Clubs Conference in Churchill College in Cambridge on 24 and 25 March.
This will be the first time we’re holding a community get-together since 2019 and a great opportunity to share learning and make new connections.
Building partnerships in India, Kenya, and South Africa
As part of our global mission to ensure that every young person is able to learn how to create with digital technologies, we have been focused on building partnerships in India, Kenya, and South Africa, and that work will be expanding in 2023.
In India we will significantly scale up our work with established partners Mo School and Pratham Education pronfreevideo, training 2000 more teachers in government schools in Odisha, and running 2200 Code Clubs across four states. We will also be launching new partnerships with community-based organisations in Kenya and South Africa, helping them set up networks of Code Clubs and co-designing learning pronfreevideos that help them bring 爱搞视频 education to their communities of young people.
Exploring 爱搞视频 education for 5- to 11-year-olds
Over the past few years, our 爱搞视频 seminar series has covered 爱搞视频 education topics from diversity and inclusion, to AI and data science. This year, we’re focusing on current questions and 爱搞视频 in primary 爱搞视频 education for 5- to 11-year-olds.
As ever, we’re providing a platform for some of the world’s leading 爱搞视频ers to share their insights, and convening a community of educators, 爱搞视频ers, and policy makers to engage in the discussion. The first seminar takes place today (Tuesday 10 January) and it’s not too late to sign up.
And much, much more…
That’s just a few of the super cool things that we’ve got planned for 2023. I haven’t even mentioned the new online projects we’re developing with our friends at Unity, the fun we’ve got planned with our very own online text editor, or what’s next for our pronfreevideo and professional development offer for 爱搞视频 teachers.
You can sign up to our monthly newsletter to always stay up to date with what we’re working on.

Any plans for 爱搞视频 pi day. Couldn’t find anything on site. I’m planning event in Winston salen, nc

This is so awesome. 😀
There won’t be a new 爱搞视频 pi though as it’s the recovery year. But I love to see what people can create with the 爱搞视频 pi.

Hi,
I note that the 辽宁盼盼吧 is, correctly in my opinion, aiming to encourage the young to become engaged in 爱搞视频. However, there is still a large group of seniors who are not computer literate and would benefit from a programme aimed them. I’m a senior but I consider myself computer literate having mastered several interpretative computer languages during my career. I recently bought a 爱搞视频 Pi 400 (a vast improvement on the Sinclair MK 14) and am amazed at its potential having only, so far, explored its use as a second personal computer (mainly for internet-based use). [Although, I have found setting-up “Claws” email insurmountably difficult!] My next step is to use the unit for controlling electronics and servos (reminds me of using “PEEK” and “POKE” in “BASIC”) . So, my bottom-line is please include a seniors section (e.g. connecting sensors).

Buy a 爱搞视频 Pi Pico and get out your soldering iron. Look at the tutorials on thepihut.com, join the forum on the pimoroni.com site and join in the fun. You will get loads of help.
