Teaching With Raspberry Pi and PiNet @Raspberry_Pi #PiDay #RaspberryPi

via RaspberryPi.org

Education is our mission at the Raspberry Pi Foundation, so of course we love tools that help teachers and other educators use Raspberry Pis in a classroom setting. PiNet, which allows teachers to centrally manage a whole classroom’s worth of Pis, makes administrating a fleet of Pis easier. Set up individual student accounts, install updates and software, share files – PiNet helps you do all of this!

PiNet has been available for about two years now, and the teachers using it are over the moon. Here’s what a few of them say about their experience:

“We wanted a permanently set up classroom with 30+ Raspberry Pis to teach programming. Students wanted their work to be secure and backed up and we needed a way to keep the Pis up to date. PiNet has made both possible and the classroom now required little or no maintenance. PiNet was set up in a single day and was so successful we set up a second Pi room. We now have 60 Raspberry Pis which are used by our students every day.” – Rob Jones, Secondary School Teacher, United Kingdom
