Learn How To Code

Code.org is a non-profit foundation dedicated to growing computer programming education.  Their goals include:
  • Spreading the word that there is a worldwide shortage of computer programmers, and that it's much easier to learn to program than you think.
  • Building an authoritative database of all programming schools, whether they are online courses, brick+mortar schools or summer camps.
Their vision is that every student in every school has the opportunity to learn how to code.  They believe computer science and computer programming should be part of the core curriculum in education, alongside other science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) courses, such as biology, physics, chemistry and algebra.

Bill Gates - Microsoft
Learning to write programs stretches your mind, and helps you think better, creates a way of thinking about things that I think is helpful in all domains.

Mark Zuckerberg - Facebook

Our policy at Facebook is literally to hire as many talented engineers as we can find. There just aren't enough people who are trained and have these skills today.

Steve Jobs - Apple
“I think everybody in this country should learn how to program a computerbecause it teaches you how to think.”
