Comic: Barclay The Bee

The InterContinental New York Barclay Hotel has been buzzing since the launch of its comic series, Barclay The Bee. A collaboration with the Center for Sustainable Design Strategies at the Pratt Institute, the comic raises awareness about the significance of honeybees—which keep the city’s ecosystem in check, but have been dying at a troubling rate. Beautifully illustrated with a smart storyline, Barclay The Bee is printed locally using recycled paper, non-toxic inks, and renewable wind-powered energy—plus, it’s inspired by the hotel’s own rooftop honeybees. Free downloads are available online and the print edition can be found at the hotel for a $5 donation to the Honeybee Conservancy. blog.intercontinentalnybarclay.com

The most compelling motivation for learning to code is that it enables building something kids can call their own. What makes this approach "worth it" for the kids is that at the end of the road, they see that their code actually does things in the real world. Not in some playpen, but in the real Internet where anyone can access it. </span></p> <p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.656; text-align: justify; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span></p> <p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.656; text-align: justify; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: #ffffff; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Programs:</span></strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: #ffffff; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><strong> </strong>Penguin Coding School </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: #ffffff; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">provides comprehensive coding education to kids ages 5-18.
