The Hour of Code Is Here!
December 3rd - December 9th
Computers are everywhere. We all need to learn how to use them, and many of us use them every day. But how do they work? How do they think? And how can people write software that is fast and easy to use? Computer science is a fascinating subject that explores these very questions.
What is Coding?
Coding is telling the computer exactly what to do ...by giving it step by step directions to follow.
What is the Hour of Code?
It's a one-hour introduction to computer science, designed to demystify "code" and show that anyone can learn the basics to be a maker, a creator, or an innovator.
