The Hour of Code is a global movement reaching tens of millions of students in 180+ countries. It started back in 2013 and was meant to promote computer science during Computer Science Education Week and to show that anybody can learn the basics of computer science. Since then it has become a worldwide effort to celebrate computer science, starting with 1-hour coding activities but expanding to all sorts of community efforts. Do you want your students to participate in the Hour of Code but have no idea about coding? Well, don’t worry! We have you covered with this collection of coding resources to get you started.
