Representing Chicago Public Schools, Pritzker Tech Talent Labs Discovery Partners Institute, Code.org and Louden County Public Schools, the panelists shared their insights on this critical topic. All agreed:
- Start early: Introducing computer science lessons at the elementary school level sets students up for success in middle and high school.
- Make it widely available: Access is key to making computer science coursework accessible to all students, not just a select few.
