00:00:00.628 --> 00:00:01.393
- [Voiceover] Heyyaz!

00:00:01.393 --> 00:00:04.506
I'm Pamela, from the Khan Academy team.

00:00:04.506 --> 00:00:08.250
So you're here for Hour of Code, right?

00:00:08.250 --> 00:00:09.699
That's awesome!

00:00:09.699 --> 00:00:12.245
I can still remember my
first hour of coding,

00:00:12.245 --> 00:00:13.963
when I was a little kid,

00:00:13.963 --> 00:00:16.631
and now I'm on my 10,000th hour of coding,

00:00:16.631 --> 00:00:19.624
and it's still really, really fun.

00:00:19.624 --> 00:00:21.401
There are tons of ways to learn to code,

00:00:21.401 --> 00:00:23.765
and there's so many things
you can do with code,

00:00:23.765 --> 00:00:26.260
like making games, if you like PAC-MAN,

00:00:26.260 --> 00:00:29.282
or Angry Birds, or Minecraft,

00:00:29.282 --> 00:00:31.999
or, if you like Science,
you can use programming

00:00:31.999 --> 00:00:33.797
to visualize the way the Universe works

00:00:33.797 --> 00:00:36.117
and help other people
understand it better.

00:00:36.117 --> 00:00:38.899
If you like Medicine, you
could help doctors understand

00:00:38.899 --> 00:00:40.941
what's going inside the human body,

00:00:40.941 --> 00:00:42.920
because it's really crazy.

00:00:42.920 --> 00:00:45.748
You could make robots,
like self-driving cars.

00:00:45.748 --> 00:00:46.845
You could analyze data.

00:00:46.845 --> 00:00:48.837
You could make websites like Khan Academy.

00:00:48.837 --> 00:00:51.338
There's so much you can do.

00:00:51.861 --> 00:00:54.998
Here, on Khan Academy, you'll
spend your Hour of Code

00:00:54.998 --> 00:00:57.413
learning to make
computer-generated drawings.

00:00:57.413 --> 00:00:59.384
We can't cover that
much in so little time,

00:00:59.384 --> 00:01:01.964
but we hope you're excited
by your first taste of code

00:01:01.964 --> 00:01:03.711
and wanna go deeper.

00:01:03.711 --> 00:01:06.310
Here's what you'll do in the next hour.

00:01:06.310 --> 00:01:09.074
First, you'll watch these
interactive talk-throughs.

00:01:09.074 --> 00:01:11.236
They're kind of like
videos, where we write code

00:01:11.236 --> 00:01:13.240
and we talk while we're writing it,

00:01:13.240 --> 00:01:16.206
and you can see the result of
the code on the right side,

00:01:16.206 --> 00:01:18.319
and you can pause it, just like a video.

00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:20.789
But, even better than a
video, you can actually edit

00:01:20.789 --> 00:01:22.383
the code that we've written

00:01:22.383 --> 00:01:25.057
and see what happens when you change it,

00:01:25.057 --> 00:01:27.587
and then you can turn it back
on when you wanna keep going.

00:01:27.587 --> 00:01:29.332
Now, remember, there's audio, so make sure

00:01:29.332 --> 00:01:30.937
you have speakers or headphones on

00:01:30.937 --> 00:01:32.859
when you're watching these.

00:01:32.859 --> 00:01:34.729
Next, you'll do a coding challenge.

00:01:34.729 --> 00:01:36.651
This is how you practice
what you just learned,

00:01:36.651 --> 00:01:38.535
and earn points for completing it,

00:01:38.535 --> 00:01:41.359
going through each of the
steps until you get them done.

00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:43.472
Try to get through each
challenge to the end,

00:01:43.472 --> 00:01:45.849
but, if you don't, and
you're getting frustrated,

00:01:45.849 --> 00:01:49.491
don't worry, just keep going
to the next talk-through.

00:01:49.491 --> 00:01:52.106
Finally, at the end,
you'll do a more free form

00:01:52.106 --> 00:01:54.727
creative project, where
there's no right answer

00:01:54.727 --> 00:01:56.759
and the point is just to have fun

00:01:56.759 --> 00:01:58.960
while using what you've learned.

00:01:58.960 --> 00:02:01.472
And, hey, if this takes
you longer than an hour,

00:02:01.472 --> 00:02:03.687
that's totally okay with us.

00:02:03.687 --> 00:02:04.886
Here, at Khan Academy,

00:02:04.886 --> 00:02:07.446
we believe that everybody
should learn at their own pace.

00:02:07.446 --> 00:02:09.132
We'll always be here for
you to keep learning,

00:02:09.132 --> 00:02:11.211
no matter how long it takes.

00:02:11.211 --> 00:02:12.585
Ready to get started?!

00:02:12.585 --> 00:02:14.220
Let's have a Coding Party!

00:02:14.220 --> 00:02:15.759
Woo-hoo!
