Each talk is allocated ten minutes for the talk and ten minutes for a following discussion period. At the end of this time, the speaker will move into the Mitchell Library café area, such that there might be more discussion.
A large number of Raspberry Pis will be installed in the Mitchell Library café area. These will include a range of different example programs and attached hardware. Amanda Ford will also be present to demonstrate some Minecraft programming with Python.
This event has been sponsored by The Mitchell Library.
