Welcome to the
21st Century
Computer
science is foundational for all students today. Yet 90% of schools don't
teach it. Last December, 15 million students tried computer science in one
week, thanks to educators like you! Since then, over 40 million students
have tried the Hour of Code.
Hour of Code
2014 - let's reach 100 million students
Please
help this grassroots, teacher-driven campaign reach 100 million students by
the end of the year. Sign up to
participate in Hour of Code 2014 during December 8-14, Computer Science
Education Week.
What's an Hour
of Code?
It's
an introduction to computer science designed to show that anyone can learn
the basics. Code.org provides hour-long tutorials featuring Mark
Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Angry Birds, and Plants vs. Zombies — for
your computer, tablet, smartphone, or with no computer at all!
No experience
needed from teachers and students
We
owe it to today's students to start with one hour. Let's make history.
