What is Coding? Coding is giving instructions to a digital device, using language the device understands so the device does what you want it to do.
Why Should We Teach Coding? Every student should have the opportunity to learn computer science. It helps nurture problem-solving skills, logic and creativity. By starting early, students will have a foundation for success in any 21st-century career path. – Shannon Miller
