Tech: CodeActually: Teaching Journalists to Code

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

As you may have seen in job listings, coding is playing a larger role in the newsroom. In fact, it's an important piece of 21st century literacy and is the foundation for new ways to tell stories. But we need training we can understand and put to use immediately. Cindy Royal will present a session that will address the opportunities and challenges associated with programming training. Royal founded CodeActually.com and developed it while a Knight Journalism Fellow at Stanford University. Through her work, CodeActually is making programming accessible for those with a range of technology skills, and building a community that provides support for continued learning.
