My name is David Batty, I am a software developer, qualified teacher, course designer, trainer and digital content developer. You may know me for my internet marketing talks, for the various courses I deliver through Code College.co.uk or through courses I deliver for the AQA, OCR, Westminster Briefing, or other organisations.
I have been working full time with computers for 40 years… and am still loving it.
I have been delivering computer training in schools, colleges and businesses for 31 years.
My weekly activities may include some combinations of the following:
Programming, delivering computer training, creating online courses, games design, writing data processing programs, working in Second Life, video production and editing, Writing Amazon Alexa applications, technical reviewing of computer books, … or other computer related activities.
In 2018 I was a JCQ / OCR Computer Science Inspector, visiting schools to inspect exam work and procedures in computer science departments. Currently I am a Computer Science Ambassador for OCR, delivering teacher CPD on the new changes to computer science content & procedures, and delivering webinars for teachers who are new to J277 Computer Science, or who are transitioning from J276.
