If you've been involved in IT or cybersecurity long enough, you've probably heard of code.org and their campaign to get anyone and everyone to do an hour of coding.
Well, North Dakota took the organization up on its offer in a big way, and used the free resources to do what the state of North Dakota called "a first of its kind" effort.
The state now claims to be the first to have an hour of coding in K-12 and higher-ed classrooms, across the state, at the same time. That's a lot of North Dakotans talking about and learning tech during Computer Science Education Week.
Here's how you can create and host an Hour of Code event where you live. Be sure to check out the map of events; nearly 220,000 Hour of Code sessions happened around the world in 2018.
