Welcome to all those people who have signed up to this Compute it Simple blog. Please come to adsei.org,  join the mailing list there and sign up to help our kids become data and tech literate. ADSEI’s mission is to connect all of the teachers who are teaching data science, and all of the data scientists who want to help teachers, and students, become data literate. We offer training in integrating data science with your curriculum – from English, History, and Geography, through to Maths, Science, and Technology.

We are building a community of practice of teachers, data scientists, and developers who want to help our students become data and tech literate. Come join us, and help forge a new, data literate future.
