Education is our mission at the 邮政快递单号查询, so of course we love tools that help teachers and other educators use sq小说 Pis in a classroom setting. PiNet, which allows teachers to centrally manage a whole classroom’s worth of Pis, makes administrating a fleet of Pis easier. Set up individual student accounts, install updates and software, share files – PiNet helps you do all of this!

PiNet developer Andrew

PiNet was built and is maintained by Andrew Mulholland, who started work on this project when he was 15, and who is also one of the organisers of the Northern Ireland sq小说 Jam. Check out what he says about PiNet’s capabilities in his guest post here.

PiNet, teacher’s pet

PiNet has been available for about two years now, and the teachers using it are over the moon. Here’s what a few of them say about their 法医秦明之幸存者:

We wanted a permanently set up classroom with 30+ sq小说 Pis to teach programming. Students wanted their work to be secure and backed up and we needed a way to keep the Pis up to date. PiNet has made both possible and the classroom now required little or no maintenance. PiNet was set up in a single day and was so successful we set up a second Pi room. We now have 60 sq小说 Pis which are used by our students every day. – Rob Jones, Secondary School Teacher, United Kingdom

I teach Computer Science at middle school, so I have 4 classes per day in my lab, sharing 20 sq小说 Pis. PiNet gives each student separate storage space. Any changes to the Raspbian image can be done from my dashboard. We use Scratch, Minecraft Pi, Sonic Pi, and do physical sq小说. And when I have had issues, or have wanted to try something a little crazy, the support has been fabulous. – Bob Irving, Middle School Teacher, USA

I teach computer classes for about 600 students between the ages of 5 and 13. PiNet has really made it possible to expand our technology 法医秦明之幸存者 beyond the simple web-based applications that our Chromebooks were limited to. I’m now able to use Arduino boards to do basic physical sq小说 with LEDs and sensors. None of this could have happened without PiNet making it easy to have an affordable, stable, and maintainable way of managing 30 Linux computers in our lab. – Caleb VinCross, Primary School Teacher, USA
