Why Should Your Child Learn to Code? Here’s Why

I have been championing coding as the language of the future for quite some time now. Surprisingly, many people believe that the idea is rooted in “fake research” and as a result should be ignored. The problem with this argument is the fact that negates all of the neuroscience research that indicates that coding has cognitive benefits for children and adults. I recently ran across this beautiful TED video that illustrates just how powerful coding can be, especially when taught to children. Let me know what you think. If you know of similar resources that I can share with my readers, send them my way.

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
