Two nonprofits in the education business have joined forces. The Raspberry Pi Foundation has merged with CoderDojo. The first foundation is a United Kingdom-based organization that produces credit card-sized devices for use in creating low-cost computers. Ten million of its devices have been sold worldwide. Recently, the foundation introduced a new version of its Raspberry Pi Zero W, an even smaller version that costs only $10 (compared to $35 for the flagship Raspberry Pi) and includes WiFi and Bluetooth capabilities. CoderDojo supports a global network of free programming clubs (“dojos”) for young people 7 to 17. At the volunteer-run clubs, the “ninjas” learn how to build websites, create apps and games and explore technology in an informal and social environment.
