Description
Code is the new literacy. Six hundred years ago, most people couldn't read. In 1440, the invention of the printing press laid the groundwork for massive increases in literacy and ushered in the modern era. Today, computers and the internet are causing a similar tectonic shift. Reading and writing are foundational skills, and in our digital world, coding is too. Jeremy Keeshin explains the basic building blocks of today's tech, from programming to cybersecurity, data, apps, and more. Complex concepts are broken down into friendly and engaging explanations, with interactive examples and practical tips. As CEO and Co-founder of CodeHS, Keeshin has helped teach coding to millions of students over the last decade. This book is a valuable resource for anyone looking to understand why code matters today. With its approachable tone and accessible language, it's an ideal choice for educators and individuals alike who want to grasp the fundamentals of coding.
