DESCRIPTION:Please sign up @ https://www.raspberrypi.org/computing-educati
 on-research-online-seminars/\n\nMost research focused on integrating compu
 ting education into existing classroom practices has centred on supporting
  learning in science\, engineering\, and mathematics (STEM). Conversely\, 
 research in non-STEM areas is less explored. In this talk\, we discuss the
  value of integrating computing in non-STEM areas in primary education. Mo
 re specifically\, we explore in detail the integration of computing and li
 teracy education and consider the implications (and limitations) for class
 room practice. Drawing on recent research\, the talk also provides practic
 al examples for educators on how to integrate computing and literacy to su
 pport students’ emergent programming and storytelling practices.\n\n\n\n
 Speaker: \n\nDr Bobby Whyte is a computing education researcher with a bac
 kground in primary education and educational research. He has extensive ex
 perience working as a primary school teacher in Ireland\, the UK\, and Ita
 ly. Alongside this\, he completed his PhD in Learning Sciences at the Univ
 ersity of Nottingham. His work to date has been published in the fields of
  computing education\, the learning sciences\, and education research. In 
 2022\, Bobby joined the Raspberry Pi Foundation as a research scientist.\n
