CSEdWeek is December 8-14 this year, and Code.org is repeating their Hour of Code activity. The idea of Hour of Code is to get millions of students to try out coding.

Here in Georgia, the Technology Association of Georgia (TAG) in cooperation with other groups in Georgia are promoting a “Day of Code” on December 10. See here for more on that, including information on prizes available for classes and schools.
