Had a great day with our BA Y2 trainees—exploring digital literacy, then getting hands-on with Scratch, coding quiz games using selection (if, then, else). Lots of lightbulb moments 💡

Also… very happy that my Scratch coffee cup finally arrived! 🧡🐱☕ #ComputingEd #Scratch #ITT #TeamCompSci

Started to use @paperpile.com to help organise my citations. It's a very easy to use unlike some of the other citation tools. #HE #Academic
