You’ve probably heard about the computing revolution in schools, and perhaps
you’ve even heard of Raspberry Pi. The Python programming language is at the
center of these fundamental changes in computing education. Whether you’re a
programmer, teacher, student, or parent, this report arms you with the facts
and information you need to understand where Python sits within this context.
Author Nicholas Tollervey takes you through the features that make Python
appropriate for education, and explains how an active Python community
supports educational outreach. You’ll also learn how Raspberry Pi is inspiring
a new generation of programmers—with Python’s help.
