Following on from our successful first batch of famous pioneers in the world of Technology, aligning with the Digital Technology curriculum in Wales, we have produced posters with more of a local Welsh flavour. Download the combined A2 poster and the individual posters below!
DigiTech Computer Scientists Posters
We have designed some bilingual posters with information about well-known computer scientists for you to display in your classroom. These figures all appear in the curriculum and these posters contain useful information about their work. There are individual posters and a larger poster that contains biographies from all six scientists: James Gosling, Ada Lovelace, Alan Turing, Tim Berners-Lee, Steve Jobs … Read More
