Preguntas y respuestas más frecuentes
¿Qué es la hora de código?
Hour of Code, as the name suggests, began as a one-hour introductory lesson in Computer Science.
Computer Science Education Week and Code.org began this global movement to introduce children of all ages and backgrounds to the important world of coding. They now reach tens of millions of students in 180+ countries!
Hour of Code stresses the importance of Computer Science in the 21st century and demonstrates that computer programming is not something to fear, but on the contrary, a skill that can easily become second nature.
Today, Hour of Code has grown from an hour to a week-long, worldwide initiative that promotes computer programming. Many companies, such as Microsoft, Apple, Amazon and more are behind this initiative.
Participate in the Hour of Code of week by trying a free hour of a CodeMonkey course that interests your student or child!
¿Cuándo es la hora de código?
Hour of Code takes place annually during the CSEdWeek (Computer Science Education Week). The dates slightly vary from year to year as Hour of Code is held in recognition of the birthday of computing pioneer Admiral Grace Murray Hopper (December 9, 1906).

¿Por qué es importante la codificación?
Learning how to code helps nurture a variety of fundamental skills such as creativity, logic, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. By being introduced to coding early on, students can better prepare for the challenges of the 21st century. As computer usage increasingly saturates society, it’s up to future engineers to innovate and design software to improve quality of life.
Reasons to start kids coding early:
🍌Improve Children’s Math Knowledge and Analytical Thinking
🍌There is a Shortage of Computer Specialists
🍌Coding teaches Kids to Think In a Multidimensional Manner
🍌Coding Teaches Children How To Be Persistent In Solving Problems
🍌Coding Can Teach a Child to Be Confident and Creative
🍌It Facilitates Communication and Collaboration among Children
🍌Computer Programming Teaches Kids about the Technology from an Early Age

Computer Science jobs
are the most in-demand jobs in the USA today!
GET COMPUTER SCIENCE IN YOUR SCHOOL!
“Technology is transforming every industry on the planet. In 2015, 7 million openings in the U.S. were in occupations—including art and design—that value coding skills. But 60 percent of schools in the U.S. don’t teach computer science. It’s time for us to catch up to the 21st-century. We know that regardless of what our students do when they grow up, whether they go into medicine, business, politics, or the arts, knowing how to build technology will give them confidence and a competitive edge.” – Code.org

ANYONE CAN LEARN
“The Hour of Code is designed to demystify code and show that computer science is not rocket science—anybody can learn the basics,” – Hadi Partovi, founder and CEO of Code.org.
“Learning to code is tremendously empowering. It lets you go from just being a consumer of technology to being a producer of it.” – Mehram Sahami, professor at Stanford University
COMPUTER SCIENCE JOBS
ARE IN DEMAND!
Computer science and information technology jobs are projected to grow a whopping 13% through 2026. This is at a much faster rate than the average for all other occupation. There will be an estimated 557,100 new jobs in CS, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).Last year only 42,969 computer science students graduated into the workforce. That’s an amazing opportunity for any coding student’s future!
