Pythonroom's free online curriculum and powerful learning management system makes it easy for teachers of any background to get code into the classroom.
Our curriculum is developed by programming instructors that have taught coding to thousands of students and educators. Our unique problem-based approach to computer science is the best next step after block-based programming environments like Scratch, Tynker, and code.org.
Get real insight into your student's understanding of computer science. Our analytics platform combines student progress, error analysis, and various metrics to give a comprehensive assessment of student understanding.
We know how difficult it is to teach a coding class, especially for the first time. We designed Pythonroom to take the role of the teacher, while providing the instructor with real-time analytics and extra resources to facilitate the student learning experience.
Pythonroom's features are designed to make it easy for you to facilitate a computer programming class.
Pythonroom's curriculum is designed to teach students problem-solving and algorithmic thinking. Our lessons are unique, easy to understand, and dynamically ordered to enhance retention. Students learn by mastering basic instructions to solve simple problems, and then work their way into more challenging concepts and larger programs. We have refined this curriculum over many years, so we are confident that Pythonroom is the most effective way to introduce computer science to young students.
Computer science is a valuable skill for every endeavor. Structured thinking teaches students how to logically break down problems and gain greater insight into the processes they experience every day. We have condensed years of experience teaching Python into a free online course that introduces computer science through problem solving and graphics.
Read the bookIt's English-like syntax and powerful built-in functions make it an ideal tool for everyone from beginners to experts. Computing literacy is becoming a necessary skill, and the Python programming language allows one to harness the full computing powers of their device. The Python programming language is also becoming a standard tool for modern computing applications like machine learning and automation.
Pythonroom works great on any device with an Internet connection, including Chromebooks, tablets and smartphones.
See for yourselfPythonroom is pioneered by forward-thinking educators and organizations around the world. Here is what some of them are saying.
"For a first-time teacher of Python, this was an invaluable tool in the classroom. Pythonroom tracks your kids' progress, while offering them a differentiated approach to learning with relevant real-world parallels by topic. Students can learn at their own pace, but with challenges along the way. Also, the curriculum supports the teacher by freeing up time to take students aside and work with them individually and in small groups. After seeing the results, our programming teachers and IT leadership decided it best to implement the program throughout the district. Thanks for making a great, effective product!"
"Pythonroom is a great way to introduce students to programming in Python. The tutorials are sequenced well and in easy to understand language for kids. Because it is completely web based, my students can access their work anytime and anywhere. Classroom management tools help me monitor students' work in real-time. It’s great to see my students so motivated and engaged in learning complex programming concepts while working through their practice exercises. Pythonroom is a great addition to our curriculum!"
"As an instructor, I am grateful for a tool like Pythonroom. The website makes teaching Python as painless as it is for my students to learn it. Whenever I have a question, the Pythonroom team is quick to respond and give suggestions. Whenver I provide feedback, any issues are dealt with immediately. I'm so glad to be able to teach with Pythonroom because it makes my job so much easier."
"Pythonroom easily engages our students, allows for creativity, and has sound curriculum in place that is very easy for a teacher without a background in computer science to follow. The Pythonroom team has given our school tremendous tech support, and are extremely passionate about spreading computer programming knowledge to all. I wholeheartedly support using Pythonroom in your classroom."
"As a computer science teacher I have used many platforms to teach basic programming to young students. Pythonroom is by far the most interactive and visual tool that I have come across. It's simple interface and powerful analytics feed makes it the ideal way to teach coding. Highly recommended!"
Educators can create classrooms to monitor student progress and get real-time feedback.
Pythonroom is always free for educators to use.
