Hour of Code (Dec 8th-12th) - Participate with us!

"The Hour of Code" that will take place during the week of  (Dec. 8-12th ). Last year, 15 million students tried computer science in one week. We live in a world surrounded by technology and we know that whatever field our students choose to go into as adults, their ability to succeed will increasingly hinge on understanding how technology works. But only a tiny fraction of students are learning computer science, and less students are studying it than a decade ago.

That’s why we would like encourage your participation and we will offer our help. There are many simple activities available on the Hour of Code website, designed to be completed in one class period.
  1. Watch this motivational video (2 minutes) "Code the New Literacy"
