Issue #240 - Champions
Happy Friday!
This week saw the release of our 2018 Picademy dates in Seattle, Jersey City, Atlanta and Denver. If you’re an educator keen to learn more about digital making and computing in the classroom, be sure to apply. And if that’s not enough, our free FutureLearn courses are restarting on Monday, so it’s the best time to enhance your skills and learn.
If you’re looking to interact with the community, make sure to mark the weekend of 3-4 March in your diary for the Raspberry Jam Big Birthday Weekend, with events happening across the globe. And check out our latest video to see how else you can get involved with the Raspberry Pi Foundation.
Have a great week!
Peace,
Alex
