Kids and parents
CODE
Kids open a course and write code in the browser. Parents see which lessons are done, how far the course is, and coins earned. The saved code stays with the child.
BEBLOCKY
Kids learn to code in the browser.
A lesson is slides, then code in the tab, then a challenge that checks the work. Parents see what got finished.
Teachers and schools
DASHBOARD
Schools create courses and run classes. Teachers place the lessons and the challenges, and see standing for the class.
HOW IT
WORKS
Step 1
Pick a course
Public courses are open to any learner. A school course stays with that school.
Step 2
Work the lesson
Read the slides, then write the code in the tab. Nothing to install.
Step 3
Pass the challenge
A question, or code that runs against tests. Finish the course bar and a certificate is issued.
IN THE
LESSON
A course is an ordered set of lessons. Each lesson is a short path in the browser, with nothing to install.
01
Slide
One step of the lesson. Read it, then move on.
02
Code
Write it in the tab. An HTML course shows a preview. A Python course opens a console.
03
Challenge
A question, or code that runs against tests. Finish every challenge on the course, with an average above 70, and a certificate is issued.
WHAT A
PARENT
SEES
Standing is the part of progress a parent can open. The code saved in a lesson is not standing.
- Which slides and lessons are done
- How far the course outline is
- Coins earned on that course
A parent does not set a goal for a child. The learner sets that, and coins are awarded when it is done.
QUESTIONS
Does a kid install anything?
No. The slides, the editor, and the run button are in the browser. An HTML course shows a preview. A Python course runs in a console in the tab.
What can a parent see?
Standing: which slides and lessons are done, how far the course is, and coins earned on that course. Saved code stays with the learner. Notes stay with the learner too.
What does a school get?
An organization with teachers, classes, and courses. Teachers place lessons and challenges. A class is the teaching group. A course is the sequence of lessons.
When is a certificate issued?
When every challenge on the course is complete and the average grade is above 70. The grade itself is not part of standing.
