Hadi Partovi, Co-Founder and CEO of Code.org, Joins Denver Frederick
If I were to ask you what subject is being taught in schools today that wasn’t being taught when you were going to school, I would suspect that many of you might say: computer science, but in far, far too many cases, that answer would be incorrect because computer science is not being taught in many schools today. That makes little sense to most people, and absolutely no sense to my next guest. He is Hadi Partovi, co-founder and CEO of Code.org. Good evening, Hadi, and welcome to The Business of Giving.
