Computer Science Education Week 2019

Computer Science Education Week is December 9-15th this year. Computer Science Education Week is an annual celebration to encourage people (especially children) to be interested in computer science. During this week, many places host Hour of Code events around the world to introduce people coding and computer science. Many coding resources and websites offer Hour of Code resources this week from tutorials, games and more. If you are interested in learning how to code, Hour of Code is a great way to try coding in a small amount of time.There are plenty of resources to learn more about Computer Science Education Week and Hour of Code. If you are interested in learning more, you can head over to the Computer Science Education Week website to learn more (https://csedweek.org) or visit the Hour of Code website (https://hourofcode.com/us). Feel free to share your favorite Hour of Code games and websites in this post. A great place to find tutorials and games is Code.org (https://code.org). Code.org often partners with different companies and organizations like Disney, Minecraft, and the NBA to create fun tutorials for Computer Science Education Week. Another good resource for Hour of Code is Made with Code by Google (https://www.madewithcode.com). This website specifically targets girls and encourages their interest in coding. This website has several activities and games girls can create with code. A few of these activities are based on movies such as Mary Poppins Returns, Hidden Figures, and Wonder Woman.Last year, an Hour of Code game featuring Dr. Seuss's The Grinch was released for last year's celebration. The game teaches students the basics of computer science as you try to save all the presents and get them back to Whoville. You can play the game at http://www.grinchhourofcode.com/game.html.
