Here’s why — and it’s five solid reasons:
- Critical Thinking Still Matters 🧠
- Coding teaches logical reasoning, problem-solving, and ethical decision-making — things AI can’t do for us.
- Skills That Translate 🛠️
- Learning to code builds the foundation for understanding AI systems, not just using them.
- Digital Agency 💡
- If you want the next generation to shape the future — not be shaped by it — they need digital literacy. Coding gives them that power.
- Diversity in Tech 🌍
- Teaching everyone to code helps bring more voices into tech — not just those who already have access.
- AI Creates New Roles 🚀
- As AI grows, it’s not replacing developers — it’s reshaping what they do. Knowing how code works will unlock entirely new opportunities.
Their call to action? Educators must push back against the myth that AI makes coding irrelevant — and make sure young people are equipped to lead, not follow, in the AI era.
