December 9-15, 2013
As part of Computer Science Education Week (December 9-15, 2013), Code.org has launched a nationwide campaign calling on everyone – including K-12 students, teachers and parents – across the country to join an “Hour of Code.” The Hour of Code campaign aims to introduce computer science to students of all ages by taking them through introductory tutorials that can be completed online, on a smartphone, or even unplugged. The initiative is backed by Microsoft, Google, Apple, Amazon, LinkedIn, facebook, the College Board, Boys & Girls Clubs, and over 100 other partners. ACCESS is working with Code.org to target participation in California.
