Learning to code and create computer programming doesn’t have to be hard. In fact, it can be quite fun. FUZE products are great examples of safe, interactive ways to teach and learn computational thinking. The FUZE system that has made a big impression on classrooms and tech environments throughout the United Kingdom is powered by the Raspberry Pi and uses its own FUZE BASIC programming language. Encourage your students to develop their logical thinking with a fun, engaging outlet, which allows them to program robots and other devices. Let them bring their creations to life and instill in them a real sense of power and confidence when it comes to computing.

The FUZE case is made from aluminum and as such, is extremely robust and safe. It expands on the usual Raspberry Pi (RPi) connectors and sockets by including four extra USB ports and an on/off switch, which further extends the life of the RPi. This one-stop-shop for your intro to computer programming is a great solution in terms of e-safety too. The FUZE does not require Internet connection, which means parents and educators don’t have to worry about online security.

Top 5 Benefits of FUZE

FUZE is great in and outside of the classroom. Whether you’re sparking creativity at home or jump starting STEM activities in a room full of bright minds, FUZE offers incredible benefits to the learning environment.

• Cross curricular – strengthens skills in Math, English, Science, Design and Technology
• Confidence builder – helps develop social interaction
• Promotes e-safety – classroom IT solution, which does not require internet connection
• Encourages creativity – students can design their own games and programs
• Introduces Career Opportunities – computer programming is a central component
  to many industries including: entertainment, architecture, design, engineering, etc.

FUZE Teaches Kids to Code

Our present and future are steadfast in the development of computing. FUZE makes learning to program and practice computational thinking accessible and achievable. Join the FUZE community and gain access to free games, programming applications, an electronic component kit and downloadable project cards. Learning to code doesn’t have to be difficult. FUZE makes it easy by realizing the full educational potential of the Raspberry Pi and delivering it to you in a single, neat package.

Get with the Program with FUZE BASIC

FUZE comes equipped with everything you need to start learning straight out of the box. Discover a range of FUZE Project Cards, which provide easy-to-follow, step-by-step walkthroughs of each tutorial. Each of these projects has been developed in-line with established IT curriculums. There are even assessment challenges to measure student retention. Students can actually take tests in an environment that focuses on interactive learning, rather than simply putting a pencil to paper.  From simple loops and logic commands to advanced data collecting and real-world interaction – FUZE BASIC programming language covers it all in user-friendly, easy to follow steps.
