Last week, Bethan Williams & Ben Watts attended an event during #SFTechWeek with Kira Learning, where they had the chance to dive into some exciting discussions. 📚📝 It was inspiring to learn about their impactful work in AI, supporting both teachers and students in computer science education, and making learning in this field accessible to all.
