Teaching ICT Trends with Pharo
Béler Cédrik

Abstract: This presentation is an experience report on using Pharo to teach Information and Communication Technology Trends to engineering students. More than 75% of the students (Semester 8) use Pharo to develop simple servers interacting with self made and simple IoT (usage of Raspberry and micro controller ESP32). It’s also used on other subjects like « deep learning », Mashable application based on API or webscrapping techniques.
