Okanagan – Kids for Inquiry: The Hour of Code

“Last year, [code.org] unveiled the Hour of Code: a grassroots campaign to recruit ten million students to try their hand at computer science — to break stereotypes and to remove the veil of mystery that surrounds the field. The campaign blew past its goal in days and has now reached 44 million students worldwide.

For this year’s Computer Science Education Week (December 8 – 14), we want the Hour of Code to reach a cumulative 100 million students, worldwide.”

You are invited to join KFI and be part of this fantastic event!

The kids will be working on this tutorial:

Helping them will be Danielle Tilley, who has worked in the computer programming industry for over 20 years, and has been a Software Engineer with Disney’s Club Penguin for the past 3 years.

This event is primarily geared towards 7-12 year olds, but younger and older are welcome. Non-readers will need help from parents.
