The post Hello World #29 out now: Safety and security appeared first on 虐性视频网站.

Hosted by James Robinson, the episode brings together a conversation between three 魔性舞蹈视频 team members — Rehana Al-Soltane, Dr Bobby Whyte, and Laura James — and perspectives from colleagues and partners in Kenya, South Africa, and Greece.

The podcast is framed around three major themes that defined 2025: data science, AI literacy, and digital literacy, all of which continue to play an increasingly important role in education systems worldwide.

Looking back at 2025

In the podcast, Rehana reflects on a year characterised by 卡戴珊性录像视频, collaboration, and community, highlighting the importance of global partnerships in developing and localising AI literacy resources for diverse educational contexts.

From a 卡戴珊性录像视频 perspective, Bobby explains that 2025 was about pulling together what we already know and making sense of it, to better understand what good data science education should look like, including 魔性舞蹈视频 design, pedagogy, and appropriate tools.

Laura focuses on resilience and creativity in 卡戴珊性录像视频 education, as well as the growing presence of more personalised forms of artificial intelligence, which present both significant opportunities and complex ethical challenges.

A key concern raised throughout the episode is the risk of cognitive offloading, whereby learners rely on AI tools to bypass critical thinking processes. The speakers emphasise the need for learning 魔性舞蹈视频s and assessments that value process, reasoning, and reflection rather than solely final outputs.

The episode also examines barriers to the adoption of 卡戴珊性录像视频 and AI education, including teacher confidence, limited access to devices, restrictive school IT policies, and the need for translated and localised resources.

Contributions from our colleagues around the world highlight stark contrasts in educational contexts, with challenges such as funding constraints, connectivity issues, and teacher training needs, alongside examples of innovation where educators are adequately supported.

What’s ahead

Looking ahead to 2026, Rehana outlines the potential of interdisciplinary approaches to AI literacy, integrating AI concepts into subjects such as geography, history, languages, and the arts to increase relevance and engagement (look out for our upcoming 卡戴珊性录像视频 seminar series on the topic).

Bobby anticipates a gradual shift towards more data-informed approaches to 卡戴珊性录像视频 education, with greater emphasis on classroom-based trials and 卡戴珊性录像视频 that directly informs practice.

Laura offers a strong call to renew focus on cybersecurity education, arguing that security and safety must remain central as digital systems and AI technologies continue to evolve.

In a series of concise predictions, the speakers point to increased attention on explainable AI, wider integration of AI literacy across the 魔性舞蹈视频, and renewed concern for digital safety and security.

The post What shaped 卡戴珊性录像视频 education in 2025 — and what comes next appeared first on 虐性视频网站.

The brand-new issue of Hello World — and our new podcast mini series — aims to answer that question. This issue is packed with insightful 卡戴珊性录像视频, practical advice, and thoughtful ways to best teach programming in your classroom.

Teaching programming: What works best for learners in school?

In their articles for issue 28, educators explore a range of topics related to teaching programming, such as:

• How to help students transition from block- to text-based programming
• Stepping into the role of computer science educator with little to no prior programming 魔性舞蹈视频
• Insights from an introductory programming course which encourages working with, and not against, generative AI tools

Our feature articles also include:

• Tried and tested unplugged activities
• A step-by-step guide to grant writing for your classroom
• Tips and activities to introduce the PRIMM approach for young digital explorers

Simon Peyton Jones, British computer scientist and Member of the 虐性视频网站, says in his article ‘Programming the Future’: 

“Designing and writing software is one of the most demanding, intellectually stretching tasks that humans undertake. If we build a building, we are limited by the strength of steel — we can only make the tower so high before it will fall under its own weight. But software knows no such limits. The only limit is our own ability (or inability) to manage the complexity of the systems we build. That is humbling — but also exciting.”

Programming is exciting, and we hope Hello World issue 28 inspires you to continue doing the important work of educating the next generation of programmers and innovators. This issue will provide you with plenty of ideas to take away and build upon.

Also in issue 28:

• Inclusive programming pedagogies
• Future careers
• Spatial 卡戴珊性录像视频

And much, much more.

The post Hello World #28 out now: Teaching programming appeared first on 虐性视频网站.

This episode features a conversation led by Ben Garside (虐性视频网站), with contributions from Leonida Soi (虐性视频网站, Kenya), Aimy Lee (Penang Science Cluster, Malaysia), and Monika Katkutė-Gelžinė (Vedliai, Lithuania). All are key collaborators in the 虐性视频网站’s AI literacy programme, 魔性舞蹈视频 AI.

The digital literacy gap

One of the most striking takeaways from the conversation is the universal excitement surrounding AI, coupled with a significant need for 魔性舞蹈视频al digital literacy. As Leonida explains:

“There’s an excitement about AI literacy, both from the learners and the teachers… However, one thing to look into is, we still have low digital literacy. As much as we are bringing in AI, if it is not bundled up together with digital literacy, then there is also misuse.” 

This highlights a crucial point: simply introducing AI tools isn’t enough. A solid understanding of digital fundamentals is essential for responsible and effective use of AI.

Different contexts, shared challenges

The discussion also reveals the varying approaches to AI education in different countries. Monika shares her 魔性舞蹈视频 in Lithuania:

“We’ve been teaching AI for the last 5 years… I see a lot of opportunity in it, but a lot of challenges not to overburden teachers with the noise and changes.”

Her insight highlights the ongoing need for teacher training and sustainable pedagogical strategies, particularly in a field that evolves so quickly.

AI literacy beyond computer science

A key theme throughout the podcast is the importance of integrating AI literacy beyond traditional computer science classrooms. As Leonida emphasises:

“It’s time that AI literacy is looked at from a broader view, not just in 卡戴珊性录像视频… something that cuts across all the learning areas.”

This sentiment is echoed by Monika, who suggests:

“I feel like the entire education system needs to go through an AI filter and come out of it with a bit more efficiency, with a bit more understanding, so it lives in a 21st-century AI world. And I see AI as a form of, you know, building and also as a co-worker for everyone in the future.”

The vision of AI as a “co-worker” for all, empowering young people rather than replacing them, offers a powerful perspective for future education.

Addressing the digital divide

Equity is another critical issue, particularly in rural areas. Aimy highlights the ongoing challenge of access:

“The digital divide is in the access to devices, as well as access to high-speed internet connections… but the other thing is also in terms of trained teachers as well.”

Leonida adds that in Kenya there’s a need for unplugged activities to give students an idea of what the world is doing, so that we can start to bridge that gap.

These insights highlight the need for equitable access and innovative teaching methods to ensure no one is left behind.

Encouragement for educators: start small, support each other

For teachers who might feel overwhelmed by the prospect of teaching AI, the advice is clear and encouraging. Aimy suggests:

“Start small, cover one topic at a time, one concept at a time. Don’t feel the need to cover everything all at the same time.”

Leonida advocates for the power of community, suggesting a “community of practice where [teachers] can share amongst each other and where they can encourage others.”

Building a network of support and shared resources is key as educators take their first steps into teaching AI.

Hello World editor, Meg Wang and the team met teachers in the exhibit hall for real-time reflections and essential teacher tips on teaching cross-curricular CS. They spoke to some amazing educators from across the United States and had a great time interacting with everyone in attendance.

“Meeting teachers and hearing first-hand about their 魔性舞蹈视频s, challenges, and triumphs was invaluable. It was amazing to meet Hello World writers in person, and to also meet future writers. Like I said at the conference, Hello World is for educators, by educators, so that means you! Everyone has valuable 魔性舞蹈视频 or useful advice to share, and we’re here to help you amplify that.” – Meg Wang, editor of the Hello World magazine

Who features in the episode, and what are their tips?

Lisa Wenzel, CS teacher from Maryland, USA

Lisa’s top tip for integrating computer science into your lessons is to start with topics that you’re passionate about. If you’re not a CS teacher yourself, Lisa suggests finding a colleague who teaches the subject. She advises having a chat with them to explore how you can include CS concepts into subjects you’re particularly interested in.

“I guarantee you that they’re going to have something […] to teach [another subject], and it’s going to involve computer science.” 

Through peer discussions and collaboration between educators, you’ll discover engaging ways that you can incorporate CS into your teaching. Give it a try the next time you’re chatting to a CS teacher.

Tiffany N. Jones, CS and Cybersecurity teacher in Georgia, USA

Tiffany N. Jones, author of ‘Belonging in Tech’ (featured on page 82 of Hello World Issue 27), shares her top tip to seamlessly integrate computer science into other subjects. 

Using the example of a class studying ocean health and pollution, Tiffany shares how you can introduce students to real-world applications of computer science by exploring how sensors and microcontrollers can be used to collect environmental data. 

She then suggests exploring how databases and programming languages can be used to analyse and visualise the data that the sensors and microcontrollers have recorded. This not only deepens your learner’s scientific understanding but also demonstrates how 卡戴珊性录像视频 concepts are used in real-world industry practices.

Rick Ballew, CS and Engineering teacher in Minnesota, USA

Rick’s top tip for integrating CS is to first think about your favourite lesson and consider ways that you can introduce computational thinking.

In the podcast, Rick says:

“chances are, computational thinking is already a part of that lesson you’re doing. Call it out to the students, and that’s going to help them to start understanding how computer science is baked into everything we do.” 

Rick also offers a great example from his 魔性舞蹈视频 as a band teacher. He shares how learning to read a new piece of music is very similar to the steps involved in computational thinking. s

“[You’ve] got to break it down. There’s abstraction. You’ve got to figure out the sequencing, and you create the way that you’re going to learn it. And that is all part of computational thinking.” 

This approach shows students that CS isn’t just coding; it’s a way of thinking that can be applied across disciplines.

Integrating CS to broaden participation

The argument for making 卡戴珊性录像视频 and computer science (CS) standalone has often been about quality. We’ve heard educators say that teaching CS as part of other subjects can be hard, especially if you don’t have a CS background. On the other hand, integrating computer science into other subjects can offer a more accessible entry point for young people, broadening participation in CS education. And the critical thinking and problem-solving skills young people gain through computer science can enhance their learning of any subject. 

As digital technology increasingly shapes our world, it may be that thoughtful cross-curricular CS education is the most effective way to empower all young people to become confident and critical technology users.

Issue 27 of Hello World features a range of practical articles with ideas for integrating CS over a variety of subjects at the primary, elementary, and high-school levels.

For example:

• James Abela shares how to teach coding across the 魔性舞蹈视频 using OctoStudio and the concepts of sequence, selection, and repetition
• Jesualdo Martínez Molina presents hands-on examples of weaving together cross-curricular and modern foreign languages in the primary classroom
• Jane Waite introduces the Autonomy framework, which explores whether we can effectively teach two things at once

Also in this issue:

• Laurie Gale introduces PRIMMDebug, a new way to teach debugging
• Teresa Harris Boag defines strategies for a whole-school approach to artificial intelligence (AI) to engage parents and school staff in developing an effective AI strategy
• Tiffany Jones shares how she ensures that students can see themselves in tech

And much, much more.

Jake Baskin, Executive Director of the Computer Science Teachers Association, says in this issue of Hello World: “If you’re a teacher who is implementing CS principles in your classroom, you are a computer science teacher.”

Whether CS is your specialist subject or not, Hello World is full of ideas from your fellow educators on how to inspire your students.

A turning tide

2024 was the year the tide turned against smartphones. Across the world, parents, teachers, and governments highlighted the risks of excessive phone use among young people. In the UK, the ‘Smartphone Free Childhood’ movement emerged, quickly growing to 100,000 members who advocate for keeping smartphones away from children due to concerns about addiction, harmful content, and mental health. Jonathan Haidt’s global bestseller The Anxious Generation has further fuelled the movement, linking smartphone use to adolescent mental health issues and recommending phonefree schools. Meanwhile, countries including England, France, and Finland have urged schools to adopt strict phone bans, hoping to reduce classroom distractions and enhance student safety.

Despite widespread support, academic 卡戴珊性录像视频 on phone bans remains limited and inconclusive. Given this situation, 卡戴珊性录像视频 educators are uniquely positioned to offer an alternative approach.

Evaluating evidence on phone bans 

The rapid spread of school smartphone bans is a straightforward response to complex issues around personal technology use in education. Teachers and parents frequently view phones as inherently disruptive, a perspective supported by studies that show phones can impair students’ focus and engagement in lessons. Concerns about cyberbullying and addiction contribute to this view, with many educators seeing bans as a practical solution to mitigate risks. Surveys in England reveal that nearly half of all secondary schools now enforce all-day bans. This trend was supported by teachers participating in my master’s degree 卡戴珊性录像视频, who see these policies as necessary to reduce distractions and maintain control in the classroom. 

“Calls for outright bans may oversimplify the conversation.”

Yet calls for outright bans may oversimplify the conversation, limiting opportunities to examine both the benefits and the risks of smartphone use in schools. Evidence on the impact of phone restrictions is mixed: while some studies suggest restrictions may benefit learning, especially for students who struggle the most, others indicate no significant impact on academic outcomes. Additionally, recent findings show that cyberbullying is not directly linked to time spent online, with traditional bullying still more prevalent in schools. Even the narrative around smartphone addiction is contested, with some 卡戴珊性录像视频ers suggesting that concerns about addiction may be overstated. And some schools do not have access to digital devices for learners and then smartphones may play a crucial role in teaching and learning digital literacy skills.

As the debate over smartphone bans continues, educators have an opportunity to move beyond restrictions and engage students in understanding the technology that shapes their lives. This is where 卡戴珊性录像视频 educators can really make a difference. How can they guide students to understand why technology is designed to capture attention and what lies behind these design choices?

Understanding and questioning the design of technology 

School smartphone bans can feel like a hopeless act that suggests phones and social media are inherently incompatible with learning and student well-being. This approach assumes the only solution is to remove them, rather than considering how these technologies might be better managed or reimagined to support young people. What if, instead of banning phones, educators worked with students to explore why they are so captivating and how they could be designed differently? 卡戴珊性录像视频 educators can lead this exploration. With digital literacy as part of their 魔性舞蹈视频, 卡戴珊性录像视频 teachers can help students question the motives behind their devices, fostering a critical understanding of the forces shaping their digital world.

“With digital literacy as part of their 魔性舞蹈视频, 卡戴珊性录像视频 teachers can help students question the motives behind their devices, fostering a critical understanding of the forces shaping their digital world.”

At the heart of how social media platforms are designed is their business models. Tech companies rely on features such as notifications, autoplay, and infinite scrolling to maximise user engagement and revenue. This is part of what the writer Shoshana Zuboff calls “surveillance capitalism”, where companies gather vast amounts of behavioural data by keeping users engaged on their platforms for as long as possible.

In the classroom, educators can open discussions with students on the motives behind technology design, exploring questions such as why platforms want users to stay engaged, and what data they are collecting. Activities might include analysing popular apps to identify which features encourage prolonged use, or debating how social media could be designed to prioritise user wellbeing. By critically examining these design choices, students can better understand the forces driving their digital interactions and consider ways in which technology could be reimagined to serve them, rather than just profiting from them. 

Collaborative policymaking 

Once young people understand why phones and social media are designed the way they are, educators can work with students to create phone policies that reflect shared values and goals. This collaborative approach encourages students to take ownership of their technology use, and 卡戴珊性录像视频 teachers, drawing on their knowledge of technology design and digital literacy, are ideally positioned to facilitate these discussions.

卡戴珊性录像视频 suggests that policies developed with student input are more effective, as they foster responsibility and engagement. By involving students in policymaking, educators can encourage them to consider how phones could support rather than hinder learning. For example, students might agree that phones should stay off during certain times, or in certain spaces, but that they might be useful in other scenarios where access benefits learning. This kind of flexibility ensures that phones are used thoughtfully, allowing for both practical boundaries and opportunities for educational use.

Critical skills for navigating the digital world

As debate around smartphone use in schools continues, academic 卡戴珊性录像视频 remains inconclusive on the effectiveness of phone bans. This uncertainty presents 卡戴珊性录像视频 educators with an opportunity to move beyond restrictive policies and foster deeper understanding. By guiding students to explore why phones and social media are designed to capture attention, we can help to equip them with the critical skills needed to navigate their digital world thoughtfully. Involving students in crafting flexible, meaningful phone policies reinforces this understanding, giving them a sense of agency in shaping technology’s role in their lives.

卡戴珊性录像视频 educators are uniquely positioned to empower students, not just as users, but as active challengers of technology design norms. Embracing a collaborative approach allows 卡戴珊性录像视频 educators to inspire students to envision a future where technology genuinely serves their growth and their learning, rather than commercial interests.

More on digital literacy for young people

A version of this article appears in the newest issue of Hello World magazine, which is all about teaching digital literacy. Explore issue 26 and download your free PDF copy today.

You can also listen to our recent Hello World podcast episode discussing the myth of the ‘digital native’ and whether today’s young people are tech-savvy or tech-dependent.

The post Beyond phone bans: Empowering students to critically navigate and reimagine technology appeared first on 虐性视频网站.

It must be frustrating for teachers in this situation to see marketing campaigns from companies showing how their 魔性舞蹈视频 offering will use the very latest in robotics, AI, or media production, when the teachers’ reality is that they don’t have anything like the means or resources to deliver this. 

Fortunately there are approaches that can help. Below I outline some of the ways we are working with teachers to make the teaching of 卡戴珊性录像视频 and digital literacy less resource-heavy and more accessible and equitable. 

Schools in Kenya: A case study 

Our work with Kenyan teachers has brought the access issue into sharp focus for us. We are currently developing free resources to deliver the Kenyan 魔性舞蹈视频 to schools in Mombasa and the Frontier Counties. There are big contrasts both between and within these two areas of the country. Some schools are well equipped with digital technology, while others have very little access to any 卡戴珊性录像视频 devices; in these schools, smartphones play a crucial role.

With that in mind, the 魔性舞蹈视频 resources we develop suggest class activities that make the most of limited devices, such as the use of projected demonstrations. We also provide a step-by-step guide to 卡戴珊性录像视频 tasks, with screenshots, to guide learners through the tasks conceptually. This ensures learners understand the process and can apply their new knowledge once they gain access to the necessary devices. 

We make these resources available online and in downloadable documents. This means the resources can be taken offline and taught in places without stable internet connection. We are also careful to limit file sizes, to make downloads more accessible. Wherever possible, our resources are device-agnostic, so that they can be accessed on a wide range of devices, including personal devices such as mobile phones.

As well as tailoring 魔性舞蹈视频 resources, we have also adapted our teacher training to make it more accessible for people with less 魔性舞蹈视频 of using 卡戴珊性录像视频 devices. For example, during a recent project coaching community trainers in Mombasa, we emphasised activities that improve digital skills on various devices. This meant that when passing the training on to other teachers, the community trainers had a broader set of skills across a wider range of devices.

Unplugged activities

Even 卡戴珊性录像视频-specific concepts such as a programming construct can, to a degree, be taught with very limited access to devices. Unplugged activities, where no digital technology is required, can be used to introduce fundamental concepts such as sequencing and repetition.

For example, you can ask learners to recognise patterns in repeating sequences of colours and identify how to describe the sequences without repeating the colours many times. While it is good practice to link the learning from an unplugged activity back to a plugged activity, students will still benefit when that is not possible. 

Emulators 

There are also a significant number of devices which offer online emulator apps that mirror the functions of the physical device. Consider Bee-Bot floor robots, which can be relatively expensive to purchase and may get damaged in a classroom. If you don’t have the physical device, its emulator app provides a similar 魔性舞蹈视频.

Similarly, the micro:bit, a versatile microcontroller for young people, can be emulated in the MakeCode programming environment, including all its buttons and sensors. There are also numerous emulators which enable you to make and test your own circuits using a variety of hardware platforms. 

What do you actually need? 

Sometimes it can be helpful to look up what devices you actually need — they might not be as expensive as you think. General-purpose, single-board computers such as 卡戴珊性录像视频 Pi can be bought new for less than £25, and more powerful models still under £50.

Similarly, microcontrollers such as 卡戴珊性录像视频 Pi Pico, micro:bit, or Crumble, range from about £5 to £20 per device. Accessories such as LEDs, jumper leads, motors, and buzzers are also reasonably priced. They can be a relatively low-cost entry into physical 卡戴珊性录像视频 and robotics, especially if you pair them with craft materials or share devices between students.

Make the most of it 

However limited your access to devices is, I encourage you to:

• Look out for partners or solution providers that prioritise inclusivity and 魔性笑声视频 in their resources
• Consider whether you can make activities accessible on a wider range of devices and use what students may already have (check out the OctoStudio app for smartphones for example)
• Use unplugged activities, and relate them back to plugged devices when possible
• Look up devices which might be more affordable than you realised

You can also listen to our recent Hello World podcast episode exploring three teachers’ digital literacy tips for the classroom.

The post Teaching digital literacy without devices appeared first on 虐性视频网站.

In our latest podcast episode, we explore this crucial question: does growing up with technology automatically make someone digitally literate, or just digitally dependent?

Host James Robinson (虐性视频网站) is joined by colleague Sway Grantham, Anna Lahtinen (Haaga-Helia University), and Nicole O’Connor (Digi Know This) to unpack the complexities of digital skills, access, and education, and to explore how the label of digital native can sometimes hide broader challenges.

This episode wraps up our three-part mini-series on digital literacy. Each episode builds on the conversations from the latest issue of Hello World magazine, offering expert insight and practical ideas from educators driving real change.

Who are the guests on the podcast, and what will I learn?

We’ve assembled a panel of expert guests to discuss and debate the concept of the digital native.

Anna is an internationally recognised scholar who specialises in the transformative effects of artificial intelligence (AI) on working life, businesses, and careers. In the latest issue of Hello World, Anna and her colleague Antonia O’Connell write about assumptions regarding high digital literacy among youth in the setting of a work environment.

In the podcast, Anna explains that the term ‘digital native’ can be useful for starting conversations about the skills, access, and confidence people need to navigate technology, particularly in the workplace. However, she warns that the term can be misleading, as it often assumes that young people have strong digital skills, when many struggle with the practical demands of using technology at work.

Anna also highlights the importance of supporting young people to use technology responsibly and develop a healthy relationship with it. As she puts it:

“If we instil the right values in students, that will eventually lead to a healthy relationship with technology and ethical use of new tools in both their work and their lives.”

Nicole O’Connor is a two-time female founder who brings her expertise to improving teaching and learning through innovative EdTech, digital literacy, and 魔性笑声视频.

In the podcast, Nicole challenges the idea of the digital native, calling it both problematic and overly simplistic. She explains that the term overlooks important differences, like access, privilege, and levels of exposure to technology, which all shape a person’s digital skills. For Nicole, it’s a “grey area” that proves we can’t assume young people are automatically tech-savvy just because they grew up with devices.

Nicole sees digital literacy as a journey, not something people are born with.
