hour of code

Students from the Digital Media Club will be participating in the Hour of Code this December. According to the website, "The Hour of Code is a one-hour introduction to computer science, designed to demystify code and show that anybody can learn the basics" (http://hourofcode.com/us). Learning computer science helps students develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills.  It also encourages creativity and logic.  These 21st Century skills will be very beneficial as students continue their education and move on to college and career.  The video below provides a basic introduction to the Hour of Code.
