Q&A with Hadi Partovi on starting Code.org, working on IE at Microsoft, what he is looking for in startup founders, and teaching computer science in schools
David Gelles / New York Times : Tweets: @levesquepat , @dkhos , and @hadip Tweets: Patricia Levesque / @levesquepat : All students should learn #computerscience. “...computer science is as important as biology. Understanding photosynthesis or H2O or electricity is just as foundational as understanding how the internet works or what an algorithm is.” @hadip http://www.nytimes.com/... #EdInnovation Dara Khosrowshahi / @dkhos : From revolution to success in private life to making a difference in public life at scale. @hadip's story is an inspiration. #proudcousin. http://twitter.com/... Hadi Partovi / @hadip : I'm honored for the @nytimes to profile of my work alongside such amazing biz leaders. The highlight from my interview about the work of @codeorg: “We're not trying to prepare kids for jobs. We're trying to prepare kids for life.” http://www.nytimes.com/...
