We need to remember where #Computing comes from, and what it is for. #Computing supports #Maths, #Maths supports #Computing. An interesting and impactful project the hopefully will help @royalsociety support reform.
Replying to @OUMathsStats
@OUMathsStats and @OUComputing have contributed to research for @royalsociety to investigate the intersection of maths, data science, statistics and computing to develop a framework of competencies to reform school curriculum. ow.ly/BRVr50PUB14
