为什么我要在学校教年轻的学生如何编码 (Why I’m Teaching Younger Students At My School How To Code)

以及为什么还要教别人编码 (And why you should teach someone how to code, too)

Imagine if you grew up around people but never learned the language they spoke to each other. Wouldn’t it be absurd? Yet, technology powers almost everything in today’s world and most children have no idea about language it speaks.

想象一下，如果你在人们周围长大， 但从未学过他们彼此交流的语言 。 会不会很荒谬？ 然而，技术为当今世界的几乎所有事物提供了动力，并且大多数孩子对它所讲的语言一无所知。

This rapid growth of technology requires a rapid pace of education to follow it, but it is pretty clear that schools are far behind. They just take too long to revise their curriculum. In my current Grade 10 computer science course, CDs are considered hi-tech. ?

技术的飞速发展需要快速的教育步伐，但是很明显学校远远落后于技术。 他们只是花太长时间修改他们的课程。 在我目前的10年级计算机科学课程中，CD被认为是高科技的。 ？

This is why I decided to take matters into my own hands and teach students in my school about technology.

这就是为什么我决定自己动手做事，并在学校里向学生讲授技术的原因。

I’m a fifteen year old with a strong passion for all things tech, and I’ve been coding for almost 2 years now.

我今年15岁，对所有技术都怀有强烈的热情，而我从事编码工作已经快两年了。

Here are some reasons why teaching every child how to code is important.

这是为什么教每个孩子如何编码很重要的一些原因。

1.技术在我们的生活中越来越多地出现 (1. Technology is becoming increasingly present in our lives)

This increasing trend of technology permeating through almost every aspect of our existence — transport, entertainment, productivity, and even education — doesn’t seem to be slowing down. In fact, because of Moore’s Law, it’s speeding up, exponentially.

渗透到我们生存的几乎所有方面的这种不断增长的技术趋势-交通，娱乐，生产力，甚至是教育-似乎并没有在放缓。 实际上，由于摩尔定律，它正在成倍地加快发展。

We should at least have a basic understanding of the systems around us and how they work, and for that, children need to learn programming.

我们至少应该对我们周围的系统以及它们的工作方式有基本的了解 ，为此，孩子们需要学习编程。

2.赋予孩子更多的权利 (2. It empowers children to be more than consumers)

Instead of playing video games and using apps, children can now gain the crucial skills required to make them. Should they find these skills interesting, they can refine them to take it up as a career.

现在，孩子们不再需要玩视频游戏和使用应用程序，而可以掌握制作游戏所需的关键技能。 如果他们发现这些技能很有趣，则可以对其进行完善以将其作为职业。

Programming is amazing in the sense that you can create anything using technology that you already have access to — networks, utilities, even whole worlds. You name it.

从您可以使用已经可以使用的技术(网络，实用程序甚至整个世界) 创建任何东西的意义上来说，编程是令人惊叹的。 随便你

It’s only by introducing kids to this opportunity that they will understand the possibilities.

只有通过向孩子们介绍这个机会，他们才能理解各种可能性。

3.它教他们如何思考 (3. It teaches them how to think)

“Everybody in this country should learn to program a computer, because it teaches you how to think.” — Steve Jobs

“这个国家的每个人都应该学习计算机编程，因为它教会了您如何思考。” —史蒂夫·乔布斯

Programming teaches fundamental problem solving skills like breaking things down into small tasks, keeping things simple and modular, and learning from your mistakes.

编程教授基本的问题解决技能，例如将事情分解成小任务，使事情简单和模块化以及从错误中学习。

The skills kids learn from programming can be applied to many areas of their lives.

孩子们从编程中学到的技能可以应用于他们生活的许多领域。

4.学生成为自给自足的学习者 (4. Students become self-sufficient learners)

I taught myself how to code. I never had a teacher to tell me how to fix problems. Everything I learned was from hours of debugging and scrolling through Stackoverflow.

我自学了如何编码。 我从来没有老师告诉我如何解决问题。 我学到的一切都是从数小时的调试和滚动Stackoverflow中学到的。

I wasn’t too sure my students would replicate this behaviour, but thankfully, they did. Some of them who were really interested in what they were making went out of their way to learn how stuff worked and how they could use it, even outside school.

我不太确定我的学生会重复这种行为，但值得庆幸的是，他们做到了。 他们中的一些人对自己的作品非常感兴趣，他们甚至学会了如何使用东西以及如何使用它们，甚至在学校外面。

5.您会变得更擅长编码自己 (5. You become better at coding yourself)

When teaching someone something, they will constantly ask you the simplest and most basic questions. These are the foundational pillars of your knowledge, and the fact that you will keep reiterating them means that your understanding will become rock solid.

在教别人某事时，他们会不断问您最简单，最基本的问题。 这些是您知识的基础，而您将不断重申它们的事实意味着您的理解将变得坚如磐​​石。

The fact that I had to teach people coding also meant that I had to review lots of knowledge, and had to make sure that I understood it completely before I could explain it.

我必须教人们编码的事实也意味着我必须复习很多知识，并且必须确保我完全理解它，然后才能加以解释。

Even the Nobel Prize winning physicist Richard Feynman used to consider that teaching people was the best way to learn, so much so that a method was named after him.

甚至获得诺贝尔奖的物理学家理查德·费曼(Richard Feynman)都曾经认为，教人是最好的学习方法，以至于有一种方法以他命名 。

为什么还要教别人编码 (Why you should teach someone how to code, too)

Knowledge should not be locked up and stored or remain in a select group of people’s heads. It should spread, and it is your duty as someone with that knowledge to spread it.

知识不应被锁定和存储或保留在特定的人们的头脑中。 它应该传播，作为具有这一知识的人，您有责任传播它。

If you can code, you understand how fun and fulfilling it can be - when you aren’t debugging of course ?. You also understand the value of knowing how to code.

如果您可以编写代码，那么您就会了解它的乐趣和充实性 -当然，当您不调试时？ 您还将了解知道如何编码的价值。

So why not pass on the light of knowledge to someone you know?

那么，为什么不将知识之光传递给您认识的人呢？

It could be your friends, your children, maybe even your coworkers. Who knows, they might enjoy it and start learning by themselves.

可能是您的朋友，您的孩子，甚至您的同事。 谁知道，他们可能会喜欢它并开始自己学习。

Thanks for reading. I hope this short post has ignited your passion to contribute by teaching others how to code.

谢谢阅读。 我希望这篇简短的帖子激发了您的热情，可以通过教别人如何编码来做出贡献。
