🤔 Why do we build our own tech at No Black Boxes? ❌ Because most devices can't be opened without breaking them, but you still deserve to understand how they work. That’s why we make our own boards! 👉 Join our hands-on courses at NoBlackBoxes to learn it all. #STEM

📍 Teaching cutting-edge tech in a cutting-edge place! We started this week our "Tech Bootcamp for Life Science" at the Francis Crick Institute. Today’s highlight: a student building a theremin controlled by light: pure science, and lots of fun! 🎶🔦😄 Follow NoBlackBoxes

Week 2 - Tech Bootcamp for Life Scientists at the Crick Institute🔧💡 You really learn the most when things don’t work 😅. From vanishing Arduino ports to fried Raspberry Pi 🫠. It was a hands-on course in problem-solving. But nothing stopped our students. Follow NoBlackBoxes

🧠 How important is it to understand your computer’s Operating System? It’s FUNDAMENTAL! You don’t need to master it, but you do need to know: the parts exist, what they do, how they connect Follow NoBlackBoxes, we made a 40-min video to show you that it matters.

LESSON 1: Make people curious again! 💡 Kids ask wild questions like, “How does the electricity stay inside the computer without falling?", but as adults we lose tech curiosity. At NoBlackBoxes, we ignite curiosity and make tech intuitive. Follow NoBlackBoxes to know more.

🧠 LESSON 2: It's OK to say "I DON'T KNOW"! The biggest barrier to learning tech? Not the tools, but the fear of asking. "I don't know" is where learning begins. At NoBlackBoxes, we teach modern tech by making it safe to ask. Follow NoBlackBoxes to know more.

🧠 LESSON 3: Let them struggle! Don’t rush to give the answer. Give people time to think and try. That’s when real learning happens. Like muscles, brains grow through challenge. Let them think. Let them fail. That’s teaching. That’s power. Follow NoBlackBoxes to know more.

🧠 LESSON 4: Attention spans aren't shrinking - they're just out of shape. At NoBlackBoxes, we don’t make lessons shorter to keep attention. We make things worth paying attention to. Attention is a muscle. And we’re here to help you train it. Follow NoBlackBoxes to know more.

🧠 LESSON 5: Breaking is part of learning. We don’t just teach tech at No Black Boxes, we let students open it, break it, and put it back together. 🔥 Fried circuits, reversed power, melted parts... That’s how real understanding begins. Follow NoBlackBoxes to know more.

Struck by STEM✨… in a fish lab 🐟 Sometimes 1 hour in a lab is all it takes. Huge thanks to @YasiyQureshi & @PeoplesClassUK for bringing Haverstock students into our lab to have a taste of what a science career can look like. #Zebrafish #ScienceOutreach #NoBlackBoxes

They said NoBlackBoxes courses were too ambitious, too long, too unconventional... But our students loved them, building, exploring, leaving inspired. 💥 We’re not trying to prove it works. ✨ We already did! This is how Tech should be taught. Follow NoBlackBoxes !
