Coding in School

Day 2: Coding in School and Time Travel Project

     I read a very interesting article on the interwebs today. Mark Zuckerburg, Bill Gates, Gabe Newell, and a bunch of other famous computer programers spoke on why computer coding should be taught in schools. It was an interesting article and it gave some valid points about our modern dependence on Computers and the lack of qualified programmers available today. It was an interesting article and it can be read here.
     Anyway, the thing in the article that caught my attention was this website called "Code.org". It is a website used to teach children and High Schoolers basic computer coding. I believe that it is good for everyone to know how computers work both on the software and the hardware aspects. I'm not saying that everyone should be U83R h4x0R5, but everyone should have some sort of knowledge so that they don't have to rely so heavily on those that do have knowledge to fix every little problem that is present in the computer. If everyone in the world could tell you how programs operate at the most basic level, then the cybernetic world could operate more smoothly than it does now. Also, adding, having the knowledge to code the most basic programs would give men a broader basis of mathematical knowledge. So if you're a wannabe programmer who wants All their base are belong to you, then check out the website and get started at the most basic level.
     If you want to know more, you can comment and I can give you some links I used to learn how to code and program at a slightly, slightly more advanced level.
