An Hour of Code™ for Computer Science Education Week

Nov 1, 2019

The Hour of Code™ is a one-hour introduction to computer science, designed to demystify code and show that anybody can learn the basics through self-guided one-hour tutorials.

The Hour of Code takes place each year during Computer Science Education Week. The 2019 Computer Science Education Week will be December 9-15, but you can host an Hour of Code all year-round. Computer Science Education Week is held annually in recognition of the birthday of computing pioneer Admiral Grace Murray Hopper (December 9, 1906).

Instructions, planning resources and promotional materials are all available. The Hour of Code is organized by Code.org, a public 501c3 non-profit dedicated to expanding participation in computer science by making it available in more schools, and increasing participation by women and underrepresented students of color.
