We have a Nature Reserve https://ntcnature.blogspot.com/ where a rang eof tech is being used to monitor, provide power, WiFi and so on.

Based on the theme of climate change I have been working with my Y10 group on developing code that will investigate and calculate carbon capture. Has a useful social element to it. Makes programming more meaningful.

There are 4 slidedecks alongside other support resources.

Here is a link to a working prototype: https://replit.com/@MJones2/co2#main.py I do not share this with students but use as a means of illustrating what they might do.

Here is a link to a bank of repl code that my students have access to: https://replit.com/@MJones2/co2#main.py this, in a sort of PRIMM mode, provides structures for working with files and so on.

Anyway, if useful let me know. EBI, if you improve do reshare.
