The Easiest Way to Teach Coding
NO EXPERIENCE REQURIED
Codementum comes with fully-guided lesson plans, providing teachers everything they could possibly need to teach the classes. No prior computer science experience is necessary.
TEACHER DASHBOARD
Quickly and easily monitor your students progress with the teacher dashboard. You can see how far students have progress and their performance, making it easy to know what lesson/topic to address next.
TEXT & BLOCK BASED CODING
Students can easily switch between text-based and block-based coding systems. This way students can learn how to write real code and establish algorithms by using blocks to visualize the results.
Codementum Completion Certificate
Students get a certificate upon completion of the program to show they've learned the basic and intermediate concepts of Computer Science.
The Importance of Learning to Code
According to a recent survey, students enjoy computer science and engineering courses more than all other subjects except the arts. Leaning to code teaches such valuable 21st century skills such as problem solving, analytical thinking, critical thinking, creative thinking, collaboration and computer technology skills. Starting students early on a path of technology sets them up for success in today's world of jobs.
Computer coding also helps teach students how to use and explain their logic to solve problems. Coding involves making choices: about the best command to use, the best order of events, or the best structure of the code itself. Students can learn to reason through these decisions and be able to defend their choices when explaining their code to others.
