On Dec. 12 at North Addington Education Centre, over one hundred elementary and secondary students with their teachers, participated in the Hour of Code. This is a global event that has people of all ages from over 180 countries write lines of code to promote computer science. This event was organized by Darren Sissons, a secondary teacher at NAEC. Students used the Hour of Code website for this event, learning how to program simple games on computers, iPads or their own hand held devices. One student commented, “It was a lot of fun, I didn’t know I could do that!” To find out more, visit http://hourofcode.com/ca
