This week is Computer Science Education Week, a national effort to encourage students to try their hand at coding. Coding doesn’t have to be complicated or cumbersome and with Moodle there are some cool ways to help coding happen.

These are all ways to introduce a little computer science into the curriculum. Learn more at http://csedweek.org/.
At StraighterLine we’ve even help provide a low cost college pathway for computer science with the C++ computer language.
Looks really good.
