There’s a new member of the computer science and ICT classroom: Lazy Bob, the LazyBot, an AI chatbot designed to help you learn, revise, and explore computing topics at your own pace. You can find LazyBot at ai.mrteasdale.com and use it on any device with a browser.
LazyBot is built to support what you are already doing in lessons, not replace it. Ask it to explain tricky concepts like binary, SQL, networks, or algorithms in clear language, or to walk you step-by-step through exam-style questions. It can suggest practice ideas, help you debug code snippets, and point you back to relevant course topics and resources from the CS with Mr Teasdale site.
Because LazyBot is available 24/7, it is perfect for revision, homework support, or quick checks before tests when a teacher is not immediately available. However, be warned, Lazy Bob is quite…lazy, so you might find it difficult to elicit the exact response from Bob. Be sure to ask it specific questions and be prepared to think before it provides complete copy answers. Use it to get unstuck, explore beyond the syllabus, or to get a different explanation if something did not click in class. Like any tool, it works best when you think critically about the answers and use it to deepen your understanding rather than just copy responses.
LazyBot is still evolving, and feedback from students will help shape new features and topics it can cover. If you spot mistakes, confusing answers, or have ideas for improvements, share them in class so the chatbot can be refined over time. The goal is simple: to give you a friendly, always-on AI assistant that makes learning computer science and ICT more accessible, engaging, and fun.
Happy learning!
