Αυτό μοιαζει πολυ ενδιαφέρων. Θα μας ενδιέφερε σαν PLUG να πάμε σε σχολεία
στα πλαίσια του Hour of Code?

 Calling all engineers. Worldwide.

Last year, 40,000 teachers led a grassroots effort called the Hour of Code
<http://code.org/l/G57JXbya8PSt7y6ek9spVg==/NDU=> – to introduce ten
million students to one hour of computer science. Kids of all ages tried
one hour of writing code and making apps in classrooms, and they loved it.

This year, supported by over 100 organizations, we want to reach 100
million students, across every country in the world, during Computer
Science Education Week (Dec 8 – 14).


 <http://code.org/l/G57JXbya8PSt7y6ek9spVg==/MjA0>
What’s an Hour of Code?

It’s a fun introduction to computer science, for anyone to learn the
basics. We provide easy tutorials
<http://code.org/l/G57JXbya8PSt7y6ek9spVg==/Mw==> - featuring Mark
Zuckerberg and Bill Gates - on computers, tablets, or smartphones.
Software engineers, we need your help

1) Donate to our crowdfunding campaign
<http://code.org/l/G57JXbya8PSt7y6ek9spVg==/MTM=>. To teach 100 million
children, we need your support. We just launched what could be the largest
education crowdfunding campaign in history
<http://code.org/l/G57JXbya8PSt7y6ek9spVg==/MTM=>, and we need your
support. Every dollar will be matched, doubling your impact

2) Recruit a local classroom. Share this video
<http://code.org/l/G57JXbya8PSt7y6ek9spVg==/NDU=>, email
<http://code.org/l/G57JXbya8PSt7y6ek9spVg==/MjA1>, and handout
<http://code.org/l/G57JXbya8PSt7y6ek9spVg==/MjA2> with a teacher. If you
have a child in elementary school, tell their teacher about our K-5 courses
<http://code.org/l/G57JXbya8PSt7y6ek9spVg==/NDg=> and professional
development workshops.

3) Host an Hour of Code (with children, or at work). See this short how-to
guide <http://code.org/l/G57JXbya8PSt7y6ek9spVg==/MjA3>.

4) Spread the word. Share on Facebook
<http://code.org/l/G57JXbya8PSt7y6ek9spVg==/MjA4>, post to Twitter
<http://code.org/l/G57JXbya8PSt7y6ek9spVg==/MjA5>.

5) Our courses are available in 30 languages. Help us translate
<http://code.org/l/G57JXbya8PSt7y6ek9spVg==/MjEx>. Help us reach
non-English- speaking schools
Welcome to the 21st Century

Computer science is foundational for all students. Yet most schools don’t
teach it, and most students never get a chance to try it. We owe it to our
children to give them one hour.

Together, we’re making history. Please support our work.
