HoC (Hour of Code)

The Hour of Code started as a one-hour introduction to computer science, designed to demystify "code", to show that anybody can learn the basics, and to broaden participation in the field of computer science. It has since become a worldwide effort to celebrate computer science, starting with 1-hour coding activities but expanding to all sorts of community efforts. ACM association of Shiraz University has held Hour of Code event for the past six years with the support of Shiraz University and CSE and IT Department of Shiraz University and has attracted many students; targeting students aged 12-18. Participants will learn the basics of programming such as problem-solving skills and algorithm thinking by playing different games.
