Brooks (R-IN5) released the following statement in recognition of Computer Science Education Week: “Right now, students and educators across the nation are celebrating Computer Science Education Week. This is a perfect time to ignite a passion for innovation, learning and technology in our youngest generation of Americans. In today’s world, computer science transcends industries and opens doors to all kinds of new and exciting occupations. I hope more students will take an active interest in computer science and encourage their classmates to do so as well. This week is also a time to renew our push for more computer science education opportunities in our K-12 classrooms. I’m proud to have introduced the bipartisan Computer Science Education Act, which will redefine computer science as a core academic subject in our federal education laws. Doing so will give local school leaders more flexibility to purchase new technology, provide vital educator professional development and offer more Computer Science Advanced Placement classes. As our nation prepares to fill millions of new computing jobs, we must remove barriers that prevent students from learning 21st century skills. This is critical to unleashing the unlimited potential of America’s workforce.” Computer Science Education Week runs from December 8 – 14, 2014.
