Everyone Should Code

Technology and software development is seen everywhere. I mean you are probably read this on either a phone, tablet, or computer. Mostly everything is done online and when was the last time you went more than a day without being online? I thought so. Have you ever been on the other side of technology though where you had to code and create the software? The field is mostly dominated by men and the statistics surrounding that fact are astounding. Part of the question is what happens in grade school and why in the world are girls pushed toward the stereotypical subjects. There needs to be more change. I believe all girls should be exposed to more STEM-related subjects. Raising the percentage of women who code could potentially create a positive movement for the way technology is driven. Men and women coding together will bring balanced insights to create advanced technology conducive to a healthy and productive lifestyle.
