California’s Lt. Governor Gavin Newsom thinks his state is falling behind when it comes to requiring computer science in all of its high schools.
“It’s time to move away from downloading apps, to have our kids start designing apps,” he told an audience at the College of San Mateo, south of San Francisco.
Newsom was just one of the high-profile speakers Monday at an event hosted by Code.org to commence its Computer Science Education Week, an annual program “dedicated to inspiring K-12 students to take interest in computer science,” per Code.org’s website. This year, it runs from December 4 to 10.
