The STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) coalition
http://www.stemedcoalition.org/ is a very special organization to
increasing technical literacy in the US by enriching the education in
k-12. I think a crucial component to this literacy is code literacy.
Others may disagree, but learning to code is and coding are truly
transforming and exhilarating. One of my Stevens students, recommended
an excellent short video
which captures many of these thoughts much better than I can articulate
them. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Later
