Why Code?
Personal and Professional Development
- The real value of learning code isn’t in the mastery of the tools; it’s in the internalization of the methods, the analysis, and the critical thought process that are the foundational skills of all great programmers.
- Programming provides methodology to approach whatever challenges one will face in the future
- Coders have an unrestricted perspective that keeps them curious.
Economic Importance
- Information technology was one of the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields with the most job postings in the U.S. in 2013
- More and more jobs require some aspect of programming – future occupations will rely on individuals knowing how to code.
