Code.org is committed to aiding computer science teachers! That’s why we’ve partnered with Amazon, Schmidt’s Futures, and The Piech Lab at Stanford University to bring educators Code.org’s new AI Teaching Assistant. Do you know a busy middle school CS teacher who needs to get #Back2ChillWithCode? We believe that teaching computer science should be effortless. With the new AI Teaching Assistant, middle school educators can cut grading times in half and boost their confidence in CS curricula while doing it. 6th-8th grade teachers, try our award-winning, Best In STEM tool here: https://lnkd.in/gQ-_agSA, and let us know in the comments how you spent your extra 2-3 hours. #Back2ChillWithCode! 💻 #ComputerScience #AI
About us
Code.org is a non-profit dedicated to expanding participation in computer science. Our vision is that every student in every school has the opportunity to learn how to code. We believe computer science and computer programming should be part of the core curriculum in education, alongside other science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) courses, such as biology, physics, chemistry and algebra.

Is your school equipping teachers to empower students? 🔑 In this article Sean Roberts, VP at Code.org, highlights the power of teacher development in expanding access to Computer Science education 🔑 “What we have found is that teachers know how to teach, period. Really, what’s important is that we are giving them the vocabulary and context to teach these important skills,” he said. 🍎 “Algorithms are really sequencing. Kindergarten teachers are doing that already and know how to teach sequencing and teach it well. Debugging is problem solving, we have teachers doing that in every subject area.” Read the following article to learn how you can empower teachers to unlock the potential of every student! https://lnkd.in/g5H2zXHu

Today is the last day to nominate a teacher who is boldly leading her students on a thrilling computer science adventure. 🌌 ☄ 📚 🎒 How to nominate: 1. Share a photo or video of a teacher in action 👩🏫 2. Tell us how she is inspiring the next generation of CS students 📝 3. Use the hashtag hashtag #CodeOrgCSEnterprise ✅ ☄ 📚 🎒 🔟 lucky teachers will receive gift codes for classroom supplies to fuel their missions. Let's honor these educators who are boldly going where no computer science classroom has gone before!
my amazing sister Claire Walmsley is a teacher who is incredibly passionate about learning and teaching code and does inclusive classroom practice, adapting lessons so everyone can feel a sense of achievement. She is constantly improving her own understanding so she can support and challenge her children. They all now enjoy computing because she is the specialist teacher. I'm very proud of her for championing such a vital topic in primary school which I believe isn't taught often and early enough! #CodeOrgCSEnterprise

Save this post to anchor your week with ⚓ To build a solid foundation in #AI, understanding fundamental #computerscience principles is essential. Thanks for sharing your experience with us Pat Yongpradit
Chief Academic Officer at Code.org | Lead of TeachAI | Systems Changer and Workplace Rapper
At a recent UNESCO event, I learned that Armenia, Brazil, China, Singapore, and S. Korea are all advancing AI literacy. What do they have in common? Computer science (CS) is already mandatory. Yet, only 11 US states have a CS graduation requirement. AI literacy builds on mathematics, science, social studies, language arts, and CS. The difference is that kids in the US can go from K through 12 without learning any CS. In the US, we see adopting a single-credit CS grad requirement as a monumental feat. The reality is that it is just a basic expectation in an age of AI. AI literacy without a foundational CS experience is like building a house on sand. Without a basic understanding of computing principles, any AI knowledge gained lacks the depth needed for true understanding. #TeachAI on a foundation of CS

In celebrating #StarTrekDay, I would love to highlight on of my colleagues. In the final frontier of education, Amber Gonzalez boldly goes where few elementary librarians have gone before! She transforms her classroom into a holodeck of wonder and adventure, guiding young cadets through uncharted territories of physical computing, circuits, LEDs, coding, and art. 💡✨ With every blinking LED and coded sequence, Amber equips her students with the skills they need to thrive in this ever-evolving galaxy. A true life-long learner, she embodies the spirit of exploration—constantly seeking new ways to inspire young minds to think beyond the stars. 🌟👩🚀 #CodeOrgCSEnterprise #minecraftedu #playcraftlearn #ISTEStandards CodeJoy LLC Micro:bit Educational Foundation BirdBrain Technologies Minecraft Education

Congratulations Anna Gagne! We're thrilled to welcome you as a Young Women CS Ambassador! You're right, computer science is everywhere, and we need more young women like you to close the gender gap. We can't wait to see the amazing things you'll do to inspire girls in your community! 💚 💻
Founder of The STEAM Blog | Student at St. Charles North High School | Aspiring Data & Political Scientist
I am so grateful to announce that I have been accepted as a Young Women CS ambassador for Code.org ! One of the main goals of this program is to further include young women and girls in the conversation of Computer Science—a subject that touches upon numerous fields including medicine, entertainment, entrpreneurship, and many more, yet is only taken by 5% of high school aged young women. As a CS ambassador, I will be helping expand access to computer science education as well as host workshops and community events in order to further involve the young girls in my local area through the ever-growing realm of Computer Science. If you’re interested in learning more about the program itself or are thinking about applying, I highly recommend you check out their website: https://lnkd.in/gCTAqSiD I am excited for our kick-off meeting next week and look forward to the vast opportunities I can bring to my community.
Learn computer science. Change the world.
