Digital Tools for Inclusive Computing Education Workshop 25th February 2026 Free workshop specifically designed for educators who support young people with SEND. Exploring: - Generative AI for Inclusion - Anti-ableist Pedagogies - Tangible Digital Tools tickettailor.com/events/digital…

We are conducting a survey exploring the use of making activities in formal STEM education. We are interested in hearing from teachers of learners aged 5-18 based in England, regardless of whether they currently employ making activities in their teaching. qualtrics.kcl.ac.uk/jfe/form/SV_6m…

(1/3) In our STEM: Making & Creating module (part of our STEM Education MA) students have been exploring how engaging with STEM concepts through hands-on and creative activities can make STEM education more accessible and inclusive. 💡🔨

We have a new tool to enable secondary students learning Python to use a more reflective process when debugging programs that don't run or don't work as intended. It's called PRIMMDebug and you can find out how to get involved in the testing here: computingeducationresearch.org/blog-introduci…

New report by @peterejkemp and myself reveals interesting insights into Programming Education in Secondary Schools in England @crestem_kcl

We were proud to see the launch of Heartwood 2 last night - a collection of writing from @crestem_kcl friends and colleagues on environmental writing. Well done to all involved - you can download a copy of the book here: kcl.ac.uk/research/heart…

We're excited to launch the SCARI Computing report today! Read our key recommendations to transform computing education. #scaricomputing @KingsECS @KingsCollegeLon @UniofReading @NuffieldFound

It is great to see the work of the @scaricomp (@KingsECS @crestem_kcl) project (@peterejkemp @DrJessicaHamer @billybwong @m_copseyblake) reported in the @guardian today: theguardian.com/technology/art…

@tom_corker @crestem_kcl @KingsCollegeLon Congratulations Tom!

After a lot of reading and studying; and 3 years of hard work, I recently completed my MA in STEM education with @crestem_kcl @KingsCollegeLon . Loved the studying and meeting new people but the dissertation was one of the hardest and loneliest slogs that I’ve had to do

@MathsTeacherKYP Nice!

Or a few STEM Masters students, @DrHBComputing ?

@MathsTeacherKYP Wow! I’m not jealous honest!

Look at all these 3d printers @DrHBComputing

We are excited to announce the release of our @Wipro STEM Education Teacher Scholarships which pay 70% of fees for STEM teachers in schools in England taking our MA in STEM Education - more information on applying here: kcl.ac.uk/study-legacy/f…

@RBrockPhysics @MathsTeacherKYP Thank you for joining in it was lovely to have you there!

It was pleasure to take part in @DrHBComputing's Spring Eco-Making Workshops, see the sewing with @MathsTeacherKYP, and attend an inspiring session by Sophie Perry on growing mushrooms - I am looking forward to my first crop of oyster mushrooms!

@RBrockPhysics @DrHBComputing @whaleygeek @crestem_kcl @KingsECS And here are the Sierpinski tetrahedron kites, constructed from wooden skewers and newspaper, session led by Dr Lucy Wood.

@RBrockPhysics @DrHBComputing Final session of the day: using a micro:bit to play music, selection controlled by an old-fashioned telephone dial! #RetroElectronics @whaleygeek @crestem_kcl @KingsECS
