Description

Why Code? Computers dominate our lives but few of us know how they’re built or programmed. Georgia Day of Code is an opportunity for teachers, students and individuals of all ages to learn more about these machines we use to work, play, and communicate every day. Code.org features tutorials that allow individuals of all ages to choose from tutorials and get coding! Join some of the nations leaders in exploring coding and resources for everyone.
