Join in Hour of Code

Computers are everywhere, changing every industry on the planet. But only 51% of all high schools teach computer science. Good news is, we’re on our way to change this! If you've heard about the Hour of Code before, you might know it made history. More than 100 million students have tried an Hour of Code.

With the Hour of Code, computer science has been on homepages of Google, MSN, Yahoo!, and Disney. Over 100 partners have joined together to support this movement. Every Apple Store in the world has hosted an Hour of Code, and leaders like President Obama and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wrote their first lines of code as part of the campaign.

This year, let's make it even bigger.  Please get involved with an Hour of Code event during Computer Science Education Week, December 6-12.

The Sault Ste. Marie Innovation Centre (SSMIC) would like to encourage participation from students across the Algoma region. We’d like to provide a little incentive to the schools with the most students participating. Stay tuned for more details.
