1.编程就像是外语。不是一定要到什么时间才能学，而是可以从很早就开始学。
We just have to start early.
It's almost like a foreign language, where rather than
try to catch kids when they're in tenth, eleventh,
twelfth grade, they get part of the broader curriculum
and incorporate it into how you're teaching math and how
you're teaching science and how you're teaching
social studies.
That seems to be the way in which kids get most engaged.
So we're doing a lot of work with many of you
individually as companies on this STEM education issue.
We hope that you will continue to participate.
You've been great partners on that front. -
2.在这个数字化的年代，不能不学编程。( 举例说。)对孩子们的期待不是他们会用手机个视频游戏，而是希望孩子们能理解手机如何工作，并能对其编程实现。
And part of our goal here is to improve STEM education generally.
A critical element of that is understanding this computer age that these kids are immersed. And I don't want them just to know how to use their phone to play video games; I want them to know how that phone works, and potentially code it and program it.
