just watched "What most schools don't teach" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKIu9yen5nc about http://code.org |
| 02:02 |
|

"Code.org is a non-profit foundation dedicated to growing computer programming education. Our goals include: Spreading the word that there is a worldwide shortage of computer programmers, and that it's much easier to learn to program than you think. Building an authoritative database of all programming schools, whether they are online courses, brick+mortar schools or summer camps." |

i watched the longer version too, which made me sad that lots of kids don't know what a computer programmer is |

There's also http://coderdojo.com/ - "a global collaboration providing free and open learning to young people, especially in programming technology" |

I should volunteer for one of those at some point. |

i liked what Jack Dorsey had to say... "I think that great programming is not all that dissimilar to great art. Once you start thinking in concepts of programming it makes you a better person...as does learning a foreign language, as does learning math, as does learning how to read." |
