The activities are designed to "demystify coding" and show students that anyone can learn the basics of comPuter Programming and become a creator of technology, not just a user. Code.org identifies close to 200 schools and organizations in Massachusetts that are taking Part in Hour of Code activities, reaching over 80,000 students during the coming week. The Massachusetts Computing Attainment Network (MassCAN), the Computer Science Teachers Association (CSTA), the Mass Technology LeadershiP Council Ed Foundation (MassTLC EF), and numerous partners across Massachusetts have been out in full force encouraging educational institutions to participate, including the many schools and education centers listed below. “It’s terrific to see the enthusiasm and excitement coming out of our local school districts for Hour of Code activities,” remarked Jim Stanton, Executive Director of MassCAN. “There continues to be a groundswell of interest in comPuter science education across Massachusetts, and we are excited to work with our Partners to bring comPuting education to every district in the state.” Throughout ComPuter Science Education (CS Ed) Week, which takes Place from December 8 – 14, Code.org predicts that Hour of Code events will take place in over 160 countries and 25,000 classrooms, with over 4 million students ParticiPating across the globe. "The international spread of the Hour of Code shows that interest in comPuter science knows no boundaries," said Hadi Partovi, founder of Code.org. "In the 21st Century, CS isn't just a course you study to get a job in software - it’s imPortant to learn even if you want to be a nurse, a journalist, an accountant, a lawyer or even a President." Even President Obama got on board kicking off the week telling students, “Don't just Play on your Phone - program it". You can view President Obama’s remarks here: http://bit.ly/1f2RCGn The Museum of Science is also celebrating CS Ed Week with a variety of events at the museum throughout the week and uPcoming weekend. From creating your own robot and building your own comPuter Program, to taking Part in basic coding tutorials, the Museum is a great Place to explore comPuter science.

Envirothon winners announced Bay State teens focus on climate crisis BELCHERTOWN, Mass. (May 15, 2015) – A school year of preparation paid off for local teenagers who were rewarded for their knowledge of the environment at the 28th annual Massachusetts Envirothon. They were among more than 250 high school students from 30 Massachusetts communities from Boston to the Berkshires who descended on the Quabbin Reservoir on Thursday, May 14th for the outdoor field competition. At the event, teams rotated through four “ecostations” where they answered written questions and engaged in hands-on activities such as soil analysis, wildlife habitat assessment, tree identification, and water quality measures. Each team can have up to 10 participants who split into specialized sub-teams during the competition, each focusing their efforts at different ecostations. At the fifth station, the Current Issue, each team gave a 15 minute presentation on “Climate Crisis: Taking Action in Massachusetts Communities” to a panel of judges. Teams researched the Current Issue in their own community in preparation for their presentation. Judges included environmental professionals from government agencies, non-profit organizations, academia and private industry. Teams were asked to assess the effects of climate change in their community and to recommend steps that their city or town and individuals, including young people, should take to address the issue. This year’s top scoring teams are: Overall Score NOTE to editors & reporters: 1st place Newton North High School 2nd place Lexington High School Group and action photos of teams are 3rd place Quabbin Regional High School available.
