The Raspberry Pi Foundation asked the Young Coders Society to represent them at Barnes and Noble’s Maker Faire, a celebration of technologists, hobbyists and builders of all ages.  We visited the Barnes and Noble in the Prudential Center Mall and hosted a seminar entitled “Makers in the Classroom: Inspiring Students to be Creators of Technology”.  At the event we discussed the ways in which devices like the Raspberry Pi can be used within formal classroom environments to encourage children to explore the technology around them.  We talked about resources for students who wish to teach themselves to code, such as CS50x and Code.org.  Finally, we held an open Q&A and idea sharing session for parents and students of all ages who were interested in designing and building their own technology.  It was wonderful to see so many people who held similar passions for technology and innovation interacting in one place.
