Founded in November 2014 and based in Melbourne, Australia, Code the Future works to connect passionate volunteer developers with teachers and schools committed to providing students with exciting computer science opportunities.Today's students live in a technology saturated world. Technology is transforming education as we know it but while many students often know how to use technology, they rarely understand how it works.Code the Future wants to move students from merely consumers of technology to creators and producers. To equip the next generations with the skills to not only use technology but to make it work for them. We connect core stake holders, getting developers into schools collaborating and working side by side with students and educators.Our MissionTo forge crucial links between the technology industry and education to become partners in learning.It is through these partnerships that students will be provided with authentic, real world opportunities and have the chance to take computer science to the next level in schools, moving beyond just visual representations of coding into exposing and teaching students real programming languages in order to design, create and produce real products.
