This group is 50-50 gender split. At the start, girls all claimed no/little programming experience, guys each listed a few languages. Interesting to see who is progressing fastest with the tasks.. :)
Enjoying watching kids discover that coding is mostly trial and error and wtf
Today's procrastination exercise is teaching 16 year olds how to make lego robots follow lines

TA and Marker, Semantic Web Systems
School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh
Same as last year, but with twice as many students. Tirelessly answered student emails, made a few supplementary materials, mostly got the feedback sent on time; was nominated for a Best Teaching Award ^^ Oh, also organised a hands-on workshop this year, because I generally disagree with lectures.
Co-organiser, Edinburgh Centre, Young Rewired State
Helped to organise the local centre, recruited participants in the run up; we got teams through to the semi-finals this time! The Festival of Code was in Plymouth this year, so most of our participants couldn't make the trip; organised a mini-alternative with Glasgow, Dundee and Aberdeen centres, in Dundee instead.

Marked courseworks where undergrad/taught masters students had to convert an open dataset to linked data and query it and stuff. It was pretty fun. Also helped students understand the course materials by email.
