Raspberry Pi's were designed specifically with the classroom in mind. After seeing a decline in the basic computer programming skills within incoming Freshman classes, Eben Upton and fellow Cambridge University colleagues set out to develop a low cost open sources hardware and software platform that would encouraged experimentation and innovation. The goal of the Raspberry Pi computer is to get students excited about programming again. With a low cost platform and a plethora of open source content, students can learn to code easier than ever. == What are Raspberry Pi's used for? == The short answer to that question is what every you want to use it for, think of the Raspberry Pi as a miniature electronic sandbox. == What can you do with your Pi? == If you are interested in showing off an innovative way to use the Raspberry-Pi: FSOSS welcomes you to submit your project into the Raspberry Pi Creativity contest. == FSOSS - Raspberry Pi Creativity contest == Your project will be displayed and judge at [http://fsoss.senecac.on.ca/2012/ (FSOSS) Free Software and Open Source Symposium 2012] The contest will run from '''October 25, 2012''' to '''October 26, 2012''' prizes will be awarded to the most creative and innovate projectsideas submitted.
