As part of our YouthSpark Initiative, education is a priority. That means incorporating the latest innovations in education technology, inspiring others to use technology to teach, and, most importantly, teaching others about the importance of computer science. That’s why, through YouthSpark and TEALS, we’re calling for volunteer educators to use their exceptional computer science skills to teach kids how to code.
Fred Wilson, a local VC and blogger, has highlighted the importance of teaching kids to code in his latest blog, including two upcoming TEALS information sessions that you can attend in NYC. You can read more about it here.
