This short movie starts with “Everybody in this country should learn how to program a computer..because it teaches how to think”
It is something not taught in in 90% of US schools.
The video is starring Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, will.i.am, Chris Bosh, Jack Dorsey, Tony Hsieh, Drew Houston, Gabe Newell, Ruchi Sanghvi, Elena Silenok, Vanessa Hurst, and Hadi Partovi. Directed by Lesley Chilcott, executive producers Hadi and Ali Partovi.
This video is a strong message for individuals and groups alike; it is a small thought but can have big effects on the analytical skills of today’s and tomorrow’s youth.
Personally, coming from a coding background and starting coding at 8-9 years old, I truly know the benefits coding can bring and strongly support the message behind this video, and it is something I do tell people on occasion.
