Absolutely furious! I’ve just created loads of resources for next year’s Year 11 students to do their IT Augmented Reality coursework (assets, worksheets, YouTube videos) using Blippar. We subscribed last week. Today, they’ve pulled the product! 😡😡😡 #EduTwitter #TeamCompSci

Some time ago, I created “dual-coding” worksheets for GCSE Computer Science. Now I’ve done the same for J836 R050 IT. I hope students and teachers find them just as useful #TeamCompSci #EduTwitter

A whopping 177 images! No longer it’s taken so much time!
