Scottish Teachers Advancing Computing Science

Community Spotlight - Higher Computing Bot  We're highlighting a fantastic AI revision tool created by Fraser McKay for National 5 and Higher Computing Science. This bot is designed to help with SQA Higher Computing Science, using only official course materials and code examples. Fraser has kindly shared this with the community. You can find out more about it and join the conversation on connected.stacs.scot #ByTeachersForTeachers

Happy International Women's Day! Working to close the gender gap is a core thread woven through everything we do! We're delighted to announce today that our STACS Resources are featured on UNESCO's open and exclusive science hub, under practices promoting open and inclusive science! All our resources showcase female role models throughout, from primary to secondary levels, and are grounded in research-based practices. These resources are free for all educators, anywhere, and accessible at stacs.scot. Let's close the gender gap together. https://lnkd.in/ey_UKZSS
