Nuffield Placement Researchers work: Twitter and Junkbots

This year I have been lucky enough to work with two Nuffield Placement Researchers one looking at extending junkbots via Scratch the other looking at producing some guidance on Twitter Analysis. They both produced blogs to share there activities:

Extending Junkbots

New blog https://junkbotactivities.blogspot.com/ by Muhammad Vadia on the Nuffield Foundation Researcher Placement Program has been working on developing a series of activities for the Junkbots project. These activities focus on using Scratch to develop coding skills by building up a simulation of the junkbot.
