Seven-year-old Jordan Lisle, inMillValley, California,joined his family at a packed after-hours school event last month aimed at inspiring anew interest:

 computer programming.

The event was part of a national educational ___51____ in computer coding instruction that isgrowing at Internet speeds. Since December,20,000 teachers from kindergarten through 12thgrade have___52_____ coding lessons, according to Code.org, a group backed by the techindustry that offers free curriculums. ___53_____, some 30 school districts have agreed to addcoding classes in the fall. And policy makers innine states have begun awarding the same ___54____ for computer science classes that they do forbasic math and science courses, rather than treating them as optionalcourses.

It is a remarkable change for computer science. Smartphones and apps are commonplace now,and engineering careers are __55____. To many parents, coding looks more like a basiclife skill, one that might someday __56____ a great job or even instant riches.

The spread of coding instruction, ___57____ justnew, is “neverknown— there’s neverbeen a move this fast in education,” said Elliot Soloway, a professor of education and computerscience at the University of Michigan. He sees it as very positive, ___58____ inspiring studentsto develop a new passion, perhaps the way that teaching frog dissection（解剖） may inspire futuresurgeons and biologists.

But the exposure to early coding comes with __59__, too. It is not clear that teaching basiccomputer science in grade school will beget future jobs or encourage __60___ creativity andlogical thinking. And particularly foryounger children, Dr. Soloway said, the activity is more like a video game, but not likely to impart actual programming skills.A coding curriculum,___61___byCode.Org.,combinesbasicinstructionwithvideogames involving Angry Birds and hungry zombies.The lessons do not __62____ traditional computer language. Rather, they use simple wordcommands — like “move forward” or “turn right”— that children can click on and move around,to___63____ an Angry Bird to capture a pig.

The movement comes with no shortage of “we’re changing the world” marketing passionfromSilicon Valley.“This is strategically ___64____for the economy of the United States,” said JohnPearce, a technology businessmanwhohas started anonprofit, MV Gate, withJeffLeane,to bring youth and family coding courses developed by Code.org to MillValley.Parents love the idea of giving children something to do with computers that they see as____65___, Mr. Pearce said.“I can’t take my kidplaying one more hour of video games,but if the children are exploring coding, I tell himI can live with that all night long.”
