“One of the most urgent challenges regarding technology, diversity, and equity is the need to expand digital literacy; that is, the development of young people’s capacity not only to access and use digital media but to use digital media in ways that create more enhanced and more empowered expressions of learning, creative expression, and civic engagement.”
- S. Craig Watkins

Confidence“In today’s world, knowing how to code is a skill that will be useful in many fields. When a child learns to code, he or she is learning a skill that can give him or her the confidence to say, ‘I have something to offer.’ Becoming more literate in technology can allow kids to help out their peers, family, teacher, and beyond.”

“Learning becomes both a personal and unique trajectory through a complex space of opportunities and a social journey as one shares aspects of that trajectory with others (who may be very different from oneself and inhabit otherwise quite different spaces).”
James Paul Gee

“For interest-driven learning to work, you need mentors…The role of the mentor is to get you to discover things you might not actually know you were interested in, to confront topics you may not be very good at understanding, but once discovered, you will.”
- John Seely Brown
