Take a minute to read the following message and then go out and pledge your support for CS Ed Week!<\/p>\n
———————————————————————————————————-<\/p>\n
We are wrapping up the third annual Computer Science Education Week (December 4-10), but there’s still time to pledge your principled support for CSEdWeek (no $ required). It takes less than a minute to do so: <\/a>www.csedweek.org\/forms\/sign\/pledge-step1<\/a> If you’re participating in some activity in support of CSEdWeek’s mission, please take the second step in pledging and tell us about it. It doesn’t even have to happen during the week; you can pledge anything you’re doing any time to promote computing or support computer science education.<\/p>\n And, if you only have five minutes to do something in support, here are some ideas on how you can turn those five minutes into support for K-12 computer science education: <\/a>www.csedweek.org\/m\/c\/zzhcw54r\/bkpcjhhm\/j2qxjfzt<\/a><\/p>\n Thanks in advance for your pledge … it’s important for our future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Take a minute to read the following message and then go out and pledge your support for CS Ed Week! ———————————————————————————————————- We are wrapping up the third annual Computer Science Education Week (December 4-10), but there’s still time to pledge your principled support for CSEdWeek (no $ required).

\nWhy does it matter? It’s crucial that policy makers and the general public see there is grass-roots support for computer science education. Your pledge helps us demonstrate that support.<\/p>\n
