David Calle – Spain
David is a maths and science teacher based in Madrid. He founded Unicoos to support children’s education beyond the classroom. His website videos have been viewed by more than 30 million students. Unicoos is free to use, so if David were to win the prize he would invest it in expanding the platform, producing more videos in multiple languages, while maintaining free access.
Raymond Chambers – UK
When Computer Science graduate Ray began teaching, he found the lessons prepared for students dull and uninspiring. He started developing new software for learning using Microsoft Kinect. He was encouraged by a leap in both engagement and academic achievement from his computing students, so he decided to share this work and best practice with other teachers. Ray’s YouTube channel has now had more than 250,000 hits. The BBC asked him to contribute its Microbit resources which are issued to teachers nationally in the UK. If he were to win the prize, he would use the funds to support charitable work improving computer science education in the UK and Africa.
