aoanla<p>The <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/EdinburghWinterSchool25" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>EdinburghWinterSchool25</span></a> was really even better than I was hoping - it feels good just to be surrounded by people who also care about accessible, open and inclusive teaching of coding to all kinds of communities. There&#39;s some really exciting things out there, including using <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Inkle" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Inkle</span></a> Ink to teach coding to English students, of course the excellent keynotes, and lots of other stuff I will unpack when I have processed it. Interesting how much <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>knitting</span></a> came up, too...</p>
aoanla<p>Great to see the talk version of Felienne Hermans&#39; &quot;A case for Feminism in Programming Language Design&quot; @ <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/EdinburghWinterSchool25" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>EdinburghWinterSchool25</span></a></p>
aoanla<p>Really good talk from Maeve Murphy Quinlan @ <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/EdinburghWinterSchool25" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>EdinburghWinterSchool25</span></a> &quot;Coding by whom? Coding for whom? Coding with whose interests in mind?&quot; emphasizing a lot of points about the need to actively consider how any teaching process affects all of the cohort not just the assumed default. (With particular application to equity)</p>
aoanla<p>Survived the Pair programming demo @ <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/EdinburghWinterSchool25" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>EdinburghWinterSchool25</span></a> run by Pawel Orzechowski (actually, it&#39;s a good lesson that pair programming techniques do encourage a lot of the things we want students to pick up as new programmers - or collaborators on any complex task)</p>
