| The RPF Education Team is just back from BETT, the education technology show, and it was very good indeed. I love BETT: you get to talk to lots of interesting people about stuff that you’re passionate about; play with the Raspberry Pi and pretend that it’s work; see all the latest education tech; and generally show off. (At the same time it’s also an extraordinarily gruelling four days of demos, talks, meetings, interviews and PR. I feel like I’ve spent the last week being simultaneously coddled with a tickling stick and beaten with a sock full of oranges.) The show got off to a great start for us when Education Secretary Michael Gove called Raspberry Pi a “brilliant British tech business” in his opening keynote and highlighted the MOOC that we’ve helped create with OCR and Cambridge University Press. It was also surprising and gratifying to see Raspberry Pis on so many stands and in products around the show. Anyway, it’s Sunday so less writing and more pictures are in order:  The Raspberry Pi Foundation Education Team. From left: Dave Honess, Carrie Anne Philbin, Clive Beale and Ben Nuttall  Dave doing technical stuff that I don’t understand.
 Carrie Anne doing her funky Sonic Pi thing. Or a rabbit puppet show.  Ben gets personal with a Raspberry Pi camera  Clive talks mainly with his hands  The graffiti at BETT is of a very high quality  No one would listen to me when I told them that the command to invert the picture was ‘rm -rf *’  Teaching the world how to be awesome. Go Team Pi! Finally, a big thanks to:
