The American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES) is celebrating National Coding Week, highlighting the importance of early STEM education and showcasing the ingenuity of Indigenous computer scientists.
This week, AISES shared a video featuring Alexa, who introduced Cultural Technologist Corey Ashley’s Navajo clans in his language, highlighting how coding and culture intersect.
Corey reminds us of the need for more Indigenous computer scientists to drive amazing innovations.
At the upcoming AISES National Conference, PK–12 students will have the chance to experience this inspiration firsthand during STEM Day.
In September 2024, National Coding Week marked its 11th year, with a primary theme focused on Artificial Intelligence (AI).
This focus highlighted AI’s growing significance across various sectors and emphasized the need for a broader understanding and proficiency in this cutting-edge technology.
On September 2, 2025, National Coding Week shared on X (formerly known as Twitter) that the volunteer organization was closing and thanked everyone for all their support since 2014.
It has been an absolute pleasure to share your journeys, stories, and adventures, they wrote. National Coding Week encouraged supporters to remember that every day is a learning opportunity and to continue learning throughout their lives.
For over a decade, National Coding Week has encouraged people of all ages to engage with coding, whether they are complete beginners or seasoned professionals seeking to enhance their skills.
The week-long event promotes the idea that coding is not just for tech professionals; it is a valuable skill that can benefit everyone in their personal and professional lives.
AISES stresses that the importance of coding skills in today’s digital age cannot be overstated.
Whether developing apps, designing websites, analyzing data, or automating tasks, coding lies at the heart of many technological innovations.
However, you celebrate National Coding Week, it is an excellent opportunity for individuals to explore the world of coding and discover the vast possibilities it offers.
The initiative has encouraged schools, digital hubs, businesses, libraries, and individuals to share their skills and stories, inspiring both children and adults to learn new digital skills and become more tech-savvy.
Hello World! just wanted to give you all an update. We are closing #NationalCodingWeek 🙁 Thanks everyone for all your support since 2014. It's been an absolute pleasure to share your journeys, stories & adventures. Remember: Every day is a school day! Keep on learning! pic.twitter.com/lMzKECOrnJ
