  •  Physical Computing based - CodeX and CodeBot
  •  Step-by-step Interactive Curriculum Modules
  •  Project-driven, Hands-on Learning
  • Aligned to Standards and Certification 

Python, a real-world programming language

Python is industry-proven which makes it a perfect language to learn. It has been instrumental in developing software for Google, YouTube, Spotify, and countless other applications that are highly relevant to students' lives. Our exclusive use of text-based code, rather than drag-and-drop blocks, appeals to students seeking relevance, meaning, and real-world value from instruction. 

Intuitive, step-by-step curriculum

Our Python-based curriculum modules lead students (and teachers!) step by step from basic coding concepts to deep and complex projects. Instructional content is integrated with development tools so students can practice the mechanics of programming and build a solid foundation of computer science principles.

Open-ended software environment

In our web-based Python editor, programmers are not limited by the scope of their imagination. They are encouraged to apply the concepts they learn in each lesson to develop their own unique ideas. Legible error messages and a professional Python debugger help students learn through the natural process of making mistakes and iteratively fixing them. This scaffolding empowers students to think critically and confidently about a problem before raising their hands.

Engaging in physical computing projects

Hardware brings code to life! Our versatile hardware products not only teach code but also get students excited about it. They introduce students to the fascinating world of electronics and the code that animates and connects the gadgets in the ever-expanding Internet of Things. Through CodeSpace, students will learn in a way that is engaging and sparks their curiosity.
