Introductions
A new nonprofit seeking to rally interest among children, parents and schools in computer programming
is getting help from some big guns in the tech industry, including the founders of Microsoft, Facebook
and Twitter. (Alexander, 2012)
Best Tech Icons in the Business
Microsoft’s Bill Gates, Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg and Jack Dorsey of Twitter and Square are among
the tech icons appearing in a short movie being released Tuesday by Code.org, the new nonprofit that
wants to make programming classes more widely available in schools. (Bloomberg, 2013)
Push for Programming Classes
The organization, founded by Hadi Partovi, a tech entrepreneur and startup adviser and investor, is part
of an intensifying effort among technology companies to address a serious shortfall in programming
talent. Few schools offer programming classes. Code.org is encouraging people to sign a petition on its
Web site stating that every student should have an opportunity to learn to code, and to use that
response to advocate for greater availability of computer science classes in schools.
Change in Youth
Many of the luminaries in the movie describe their first crude programming efforts and attempt to
demystify the discipline by comparing it to other interests that students more commonly pursue. “It’s
really not unlike playing an instrument or playing a sport,” Drew Houston, the chief executive and
cofounder of Dropbox, says in the movie. “It starts out being very intimidating but you kind of get the
hang of it over time.”
