STEM Computing Workshop with Jamie
Our STEM Computing Club always continues to grow in population and enthusiasm and last week’s session, led by myself along with the other STEM leaders, was no exception.
As the Senior STEM leader in the computing department at Bushey Meads, I ran a hands-on workshop focused on the Sphero-Bolt robots, guiding students through the exciting world of robotics, programming and the real-world applications that it opens up.
The session was a great success, with students quickly learning how to control the Sphero-Bolts, exploring the possibilities of these robots and even starting planning potential mini-events using their new skills.
The session took place in the F4 classroom, with many regular club attendees returning and new faces from different year groups joining the fun.
At our computing club, participants get to experience these occasional workshops and are also given the opportunity to explore a variety of creative uses for code in all sorts of contexts, from building games and animations to designing interactive questionnaires.
As STEM leaders team at Bushey Meads, we will continue to inspire students across the school to explore the possibilities of technology in innovative and collaborative ways.
We are looking forward to seeing more students joining the computing club and taking part in the coding activities.
