Code Conquest Newsletter #9
Apr 17, 2013
This isn’t really news. But it’s a good video, so we thought we’d share it anyway.
Douglas Rushkoff is the author of Program or Be Programmed, and in this video, he explains exactly why learning code is so important:
‘When human beings acquired language, we didn’t just learn to listen, we learned how to speak.’
‘When human beings acquired text, we learned not just how to read, but how to write.’
‘And now that we acquire computers, we should learn not just how to use them, but how to program them.’
He explains it better than we ever could! Watch the 2 minute video here…
