Recipes as algorithms is one of the themes I'll be exploring in the next issue of Digital Education, which will be out soon.

Other themes include:

  • Is educational research worth the paper it's written on?
  • Can you lead a subject like Computing by algorithms?
  • What I've been reading in the way of books.
  • Interesting articles.
  • Where to find free high quality photos that are not just of white people.
  • And more!
