AlbanyCanCode partners with Capital Region educators to offer training, support and instructional tools for K-12 students by empowering elementary and middle school teachers to include coding activities in the curricular day. The goals of its K12 programs are:
- Build capacity for coding education in our public schools
- invite all our young people to look into being a maker – not only a user – of software;
- change mindset about the relevance of coding skill, and about who can work in technology;
- open pathways for students, their teachers and families, to a future of coding literacy and software expertise.
