Petogodišnjaci uče programiranje

Određena vrsta radne snage nedostaje Evropi. Ako želimo da zaštitimo naše tržište, moraćemo, između ostalog, više da uradimo po pitanju obrazovanja. U okviru nedelje programiranja, mnogi su izneli svoja zapažanja.

"Kolalicija industrije EU i USA tehnoloških kompanija, uključujući Microsoft, Facebook i Rovio je 14. oktobra poslala pismo Evropskim ministrima za obrazovanje tražeći više programiranja u školama.

Programiranje direktno pomaže učenicima da razviju transverzalne veštine kao što su analitičko razmišljanje, rešavanje problema, rad u timu, i kreativnost. Rani početak podrazumeva da će biti skloniji IKT i srodnim studijama."

A cross-industry coalition of EU and US technology companies, including Microsoft, Facebook and Rovio, today (14 October) sent an open letter to EU ministers for Education, calling for more computer science education in schools.

“As stewards of Europe’s future generations, you will be all too aware that as early as the age of 7, children reach a critical juncture, when they are learning the core life skills of reading, writing and basic maths. However, to flourish in tomorrow’s digital economy and society, they should be learning to code. And many, sadly, are not,” the coding coalition said in a statement.

The EU has already backed the introduction of coding in schools.

Earlier during the summer, Commissioner for the Digital Agenda Neelie Kroes, and Youth and Education Commissioner Androulla Vasiliou, likewise wrote a letter to the EU’s 28 education ministers, urging them to give every child the opportunity to develop basic coding skills at school.

In the letter, the commissioners said that children in the EU need to be better equipped to work in the digital era. Especially, at a time when youth unemployment is one of Europe’s biggest challenges.

"Coding will also directly help students to develop transversal skills such as analytical thinking, problem solving, team working, and creativity. Starting early means that they will be more inclined to consider computer science studies and ICT related careers," they wrote.
