What is computer code?
Computer coding or programming is the language we use to tell computers what to do. Programmers create apps, design webpages, and create the games we love to play. Computer code is everywhere. Giving our students exposure to programming early on helps strengthen their computation thinking skills and opens the door to job opportunities that don't even exist yet!
