It seems like giving out RPi's seem like the perfect reward. It's tangible and it helps keep environments separate versus a Windows or Mac laptop. Kids can take risks on the RPi by breaking things which is a good learning technique.
- drewzero1 5y agoI do hope the kids can retain any enthusiasm for using the RPis after the course is over, otherwise it might just sit on their shelf doing nothing. That's a bit pessimistic, I guess, but I definitely went through seasons of ignoring tech toys I'd been so excited about initially. +1 for being able to break things, though. I know I'm way more likely to try risky (and educational!) maneuvers on a spare computer than the one I have to use for (home)work, assuming I even have one.
