On this episode of ‘A Lot to Learn’, our hosts Braden and Mike got the chance to talk with Pat Yongpradit, the Chief Academic Officer at Code.org, a non-profit organization dedicated to expanding access to computer science in schools and increasing participation from underrepresented groups. As a high school computer science teacher, Yongpradit inspired students to create mobile games and apps for social causes, and implemented initiatives to broaden participation in computer science among minority groups. He is certified in biology, physics, math, health, and technology education, and has been recognized as a Microsoft Worldwide Innovative Educator.
As a technology-driven company, Casca believes in unlocking the power of education. In 2021, Casca committed to donating $1 from every pair of shoes sold to code.org. With this initiative, we hope to help fuel the next generation of change-makers and ensure that the work we do today builds momentum towards even more progress in the years ahead.
