    Are you interested in bringing programming and/or computer science to the classroom? Are you familiar with "block-based" coding programs?

    We invite you to participate in our exclusive Microsoft MakeCode educator focus group on August 30, 2024 from 3:30-4:30pm PDT. 

    What's in it for you? 

    • Preview New Tech: Play with new features that have not yet been made available to the public. 

    • Campus Visit: Get an insider's look at Microsoft's campus and experience an optional tour of our facilities. 

    • Free micro:bit: As a token of appreciation, each participant will receive a free micro:bit-the perfect tool for putting coding concepts into practice. 

    Who can join? K-12 Educators from all disciplines are welcome! You don't need to have taught a specific computer science class-just bring your enthusiasm for introducing students to code. 

    👉 Sign up now at https://aka.ms/mc-focus to be part of this exciting opportunity 

    Note: Microsoft MakeCode is a free online platform where anyone can build games, code devices, or mod Minecraft. If you're ready to empower your students with coding, this focus group is for you. 🚀
