Karl has worked in education for over 7 years. He started as a Learning & Equalities Mentor where he used his passion for computing and his film production degree to help children, who would ordinarily struggle to access the wider curriculum, produce films and animations about a range of topics from Egyptians to natural disasters. After completing his PGCE, he began teaching in Year 5 in a three-form entry teaching school in Newcastle upon Tyne. He currently leads computing and runs a CAS community of practice. He has delivered workshops for NQT’s, student teachers and experienced teachers alike. Most recently he delivered a workshop at the #CASVirtual20 virtual conference. He’s incredibly passionate about how technology can be used to inspire the next generation and believes that everything a teacher does should be rooted in the most relevant educational research. He has launched his own site http://pedabytes.com where he talks about his experiences, tech, teaching and pedagogy. You can follow me him twitter @MRMICT.
