European Code Week - 11th to 17th October 2014

Hi all, Our European audience might be interested to know that next week is European Code Week. This is an initiative organised by the European Union and is similar in some ways to the U.S. initiative Code.org. Check out the map on this website - you may find an event of interest close by you. http://events.codeweek.eu Derval

Looks like the UK has events all over the place too - awesome! I missed out on Code.org's party, so I'm just going to have to wait for the second round to begin to join in. Thanks for the share Derval! On a different note, if anyone is not around the UK or Europe and still wants to participate, ever so slightly, the resources page has a bunch of cool links and well, resources, to take a look at :-) http://codeweek.eu/resources/ Cheers, David Van Beveren http://btmods.com/chat ^ Chat with other BT members live! http://btmods.com/hire ^ Hire MrDavid for one of his services!

Hey there Mr. David, the impressive country for events has got to be Ireland. If you consider there's only a population of 4.5m and they have over 100 events versus Italy with a population of 60m and there's only about the same number of events. Crazy!! I think I might have to organise something myself over here ;-)

You certainly should organize an Italian event. For sure, it will be a fashionable event! :-) -- Niraj

You're right Niraj... I thought the same thing. I should organise something, so I did. Here's the link: http://events.codeweek.eu/view/2925/coding-per-la-quinta-elementare/ The local school was so keen to do something, they've decided to have it run for the entire school year! Yay!!
