Support 1 Hour of Code with Code.org
1 point by CodeAvengers on July 18, 2013 | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments
On Tuesday, Code.org founder Hadi Partovi announced a new initiative.

December 8-15 is computer science education week and Code.org is pushing for 100,000 teachers, educators, volunteers, to bring an Hour of Code to every student."

Google will support the cause by advertising CS Education Week with a link to Code.org on the homepage for an entire week!

CodeAvengers.com and others will be launching 1 hour courses specifically for the event.

How can you support the cause?




The 1 hour of code initiative aims to give as many beginners as possible a taste and to demystify "code".

If you would like to register your support for this initiative sign up at http://www.csedweek.org. A cool new video and promo material will be coming soon.


I like the idea and all. What are you asking us to do to help though?
