Raspberry Pi

Le Raspberry Pi est un nano-ordinateur monocarte à processeur ARM conçu par le créateur de jeux vidéo David Braben, dans le cadre de sa fondation Raspberry Pi[2]. Cet ordinateur, qui a la taille d'une carte de crédit[2], permet l'exécution de plusieurs variantes du système d'exploitation libre GNU/Linux et des logiciels compatibles. Il est fourni nu (carte mère seule, sans boîtier, alimentation, clavier, souris ni écran) dans l'objectif de diminuer les coûts et de permettre l'utilisation de matériel de récupération. Cet ordinateur est destiné à encourager l'apprentissage de la programmation informatique[2]. Il est cependant suffisamment ouvert (ports USB voire réseau) et puissant (ARM 700 MHz, 256 Mo de mémoire vive pour le modèle d'origine, 512 Mo sur les dernières versions[3]) pour permettre une grande palette d'utilisations. Son prix de vente était estimé à 25 $, soit 19,09 €, début mai 2011. Historique[modifier | modifier le code]

The Challenge. Computing is one of the most exciting subjects on earth.

The Challenge

Yet the current arrangements for teaching computing concepts at school in the UK leave our brightest students feeling that it is irrelevant and dull. Those who make their careers in Computing progress in spite of, not because of, their school education. This is the challenge. There are a number of contributory factors, many of which are inter-linked: The confusion between 'ICT'? CAS Raspberry Pi Educational Manual.

You might remember that we mentioned last year that a team of UK teachers from Computing at School (CAS) was working on a Creative Commons licensed teaching manual for the Raspberry Pi, with recognition and encouragement from the Raspberry Pi Foundation.

CAS Raspberry Pi Educational Manual

That manual is now available at the Pi Store (which you’ll find on your Raspberry Pi’s desktop) as a PDF. If you’re not a Pi owner, there’s a link to a copy at the bottom of this post. The manual is released under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 unported licence, which is a complicated way of saying that it’s free for you to download, copy, adapt and use – you just can’t sell it. You’ll find chapters here on Scratch, Python, interfacing, and the command line. There’s a group at Oracle which is currently working with us on a faster Java virtual machine (JVM) for the Pi, and once that work’s done, chapters on Greenfoot and Geogebra will also be made available – we hope that’ll be very soon.

The manual itself? Raspberry Pi at Southampton. The steps to make a Raspberry Pi supercomputer can be downloaded here [9th Jan 2013 update]: Raspberry Pi Supercomputer (PDF).

We wrote up our work as a scientific journal publication where you can find further technical details on the build, motivation for the project and benchmarking.
