It’s Time to Code.

In this salon, Mishka Orakzai will be hosting a discussion on the buzz to learn to code and its relevance for our future.

We’ll be talking about the coding literacy movement, the ever-growing tech industry, and contrasting them with Marc Andreessen’s infamous “It’s time to build” essay – where he argues that despite the resources and technology, the West was unprepared when the pandemic hit because of it’s loss of desire to build answers to it’s biggest problems. Which brings us to the question:

Is it still the time to code?

We’ll talk more about how programming can support other industries and diversifying the era of Learn to Code.

Reading List:

• IT’S TIME TO BUILD
• Should All Children Learn to Code by the End of High School?
• Coding Literacy: How Computer Programming Is Changing Writing
