From 15 to October 23, 2016 takes place the week of programming Code, Codeweek, reached the Sixth Edition. During This week thousands of events are taking place across Europe to offer children and young people the opportunity to start programming!

The materials and methods tested during the CodeWeek will remain available to anyone who wants to use them and extend them.
What is it
The CodeWeek is a container for events proposed by anyone who shares the purposes and can help to reach them. Success is measured by counting the people, especially children and young people, who, during the week of programming will have had the opportunity to attend an event of coding. For this it is important that events are many, diverse, distributed throughout the national territory and, above all, taken part! To achieve this need the cooperation and participation of all!
Why
The programming is the language of things. We call smart objects contain a microprocessor that is just waiting to be programmed. Program is the easiest way to realise our ideas and computational thinking stimulates creativity and helps us to solve problems of all kinds.
