Over the course of the last two decades, the Internet has become a fixture of everyday life. And, as our digital lives expand, so do the number of jobs available for programmers and web developers. In light of this, coding — and how best to learn it — was a hot topic of conversation at SXSW Edu this year. The conference, held every March in Austin, Texas, regularly draws a crowd of teachers, administrators and innovators seeking the best new ideas in the field of education. In and outside of sessions, conference attendees discussed strategies for equipping learners with the skills they need to be successful programmers. This is the third episode in a four part series from Fearless Careers at SXSWedu 2015.
