      <title>Programming and AI: A Guide for Parents</title>
      <link>https://personaljournal.ca/paulsutton/programming-and-ai-a-guide-for-parents</link>
      <description>&lt;![CDATA[Programming and AI: A Guide for Parents&#xA;&#xA;This was posted to LinkedIn.  I am sharing here as it may be of interest to anyone looking at where the industry is moving and gives an idea of what to be learning.  It is also important for parents to understand so they can support learning.&#xA;&#xA;I would encourage everyone to learn to code, I would encourage parents to learn what this is about so they can support their children.  After all events such as Code Club or the Tech Jam would require parental permission.&#xA;&#xA;It is also important for parents  to understand so they can talk to their children about what they are doing, help them find information and sort out the bad information from the good,  understanding how to use online forums and importantly stay safe by not sharing personal or private information.  &#xA;&#xA;While learning at home is possible, being able to meet up with other developers helps solve problems, builds social skills and you can get help with bigger projects leading to developing team and leadership skills,  all very important to employers. &#xA;&#xA;Programming and AI: A Guide for Parents - Nisha Talagala - Medium&#xA;&#xA;Programming and AI: A Guide for Parents&#xA;&#xA;Nisha Talagala&#xA;Medium&#xA;LinkedIn&#xA;&#xA;Article links&#xA;&#xA;Python&#xA;GitHub&#xA;Docker&#xA;&#xA;Where to learn (or where to get started)&#xA;&#xA;You can learn these skills from a wide range of providers both physical colleges / universities or via online learning,  &#xA;&#xA;Codecademy&#xA;FreeCodeCamp&#xA;&#xA;The developer roadmap may also be of interest,&#xA;&#xA;While schools can help so can events such as Tech Jams or code club.

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Programming and AI: A Guide for Parents</p>

<p>This was posted to LinkedIn.  I am sharing here as it may be of interest to anyone looking at where the industry is moving and gives an idea of what to be learning.  It is also important for parents to understand so they can support learning.</p>

<p>I would encourage everyone to learn to code, I would encourage parents to learn what this is about so they can support their children.  After all events such as Code Club or the Tech Jam would require parental permission.</p>

<p>It is also important for parents  to understand so they can talk to their children about what they are doing, help them find information and sort out the bad information from the good,  understanding how to use online forums and importantly stay safe by <em>not</em> sharing personal or private information.</p>

<p>While learning at home is possible, being able to meet up with other developers helps solve problems, builds social skills and you can get help with bigger projects leading to developing team and leadership skills,  all very important to employers.</p>
