The Hour of Code is now just a week away.

If you haven’t heard already, we’re supporting this unprecedented movement to help 10 million students try computer science this December (9-15). We’re asking you to join us. Get started at http://hourofcode.com

Why computer science?

Technology is everywhere today. But only a tiny fraction of students are learning how to create technology. The Hour of Code is a campaign to prove that every child can start learning the basics. Code.org will provide tutorials with options for every age, every device, and even “unplugged.” No prep from teachers needed. We invite you to check out all the tutorials here - featuring Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates and Angry Birds.
