Functional Hare and Hounds

Over the past decade, many countries around the world have introduced programming into their national curriculum. In this talk we will consider whether the functional paradigm is well suited to the implementation of the national curriculum. We will argue that Elixir with its ecosystem is great for the school classroom. We will demonstrate implementation of mathematics and computing classes with Livebook.
