Day 71 - #HourofCode in Burlington - Patrick Larkin, Assistant Superintendent

Many of our students took part in the Computer Science Education Week initiative this past week and spend an hour learning how to code.  According to the data compiled by the folks csedweek.org, over 15 million students took part in the Hour of Code initiative. Check out a few of the tweets compiled from our #bpschat Twitter feed during the course of the week. You can also check out the activity from around the world by checking out the hashtag #HourofCode on Twitter.

Thanks to all of the staff members who gave their students an opportunity to participate in this initiative! For those who did not participate, the resources are available on the Computer Science Education Week site.  There are also a number of great resources for those who want to continue coding  on the Beyond One Hour section of the website.
