As educators, we strive to help our students understand the world around them. This week, during Computer Science Education Week, Code.org is sponsoring an Hour of Code where students will gain a basic understanding of the underlying software that drives our modern world. Through STEM education, the development of critical thinking skills and hands-on programs like Code.org, we hope to change our students from simple consumers of technology to empowered innovators and makers.
Watch this video to better understand why we need to teach learn code to provide our students with the best opportunities for their future.
