More than 300 students received lessons in computer coding as part of the global Hour of Code event. Volunteers from Zions Bank Corp.’s Women in Technology group helped the students make binary bracelets and learn the language of coding with Angry Birds characters. Hour of Code is a global initiative by Computer Science Education Week and Code.org to introduce millions of students to one hour of computer science and computer programming.
