Don't.
Teach them to experiment, problem solve, to be creative, and that failing is okay.
Coding is useful today.. none of us know what will be 10 or 20 years from now.
- EpicEng 10y ago+1. I think the high level concepts are far more valuable. If they decide to write code in the future then great, they've got a leg up. If they don't then they still walk away with more capacity for problem solving and logical decomposition.
- contravariant 10y agoCoding in its most general form (controlling an apparatus through high level deterministic rules) will probably remain useful. Any particular coding language and computer architecture might become obsolete though.
