Educreating A New Post: Chris

This week's interview was very cool! We interveiwed a computer programmer named Chris. He went to UC Berkeley California which is a private school, and got his degree in computer science. Also he is the co-founder of Educreations. Educreations is an app where anyone can easily create video lessons. He created Educreations especially for iPad because he wanted to enable people to create their own videos. A interesting fact is the building where they are located provides a ping pong table, a gym and a snack bar for their employees. What inspired him to make Educreations is the help that his friends needed.Another inspiration was his sixth grade teacher that encouraged him to be interested in computers. In order to make Educreations he had to use code. Code is something you use to make programs and apps. He says that code is just like another language. After that interview I am kind of interested in computer programming now! Tune in to my next blog!
