CodeCombat is a gamified programming education platform approved by the College Board and adopted by 20,000 schools around the world. The teaching materials are designed according to international teaching standards. It is your best choice for IT course teaching system!

CodeCombat is mainly suitable for elementary school to high school students.

Yes, each level of CodeCombat has been analyzed and tested to be the most suitable learning mode for each student. Each level provides hints but does not directly provide answers, helping students analyze and understand the problems. Challenge levels allow students to self-evaluate their learning outcomes.

In addition, these syllabuses and teaching materials are specially designed for IT teachers who do not have a professional background in computer science. CodeCombat is widely used by schools around the world as a computer teaching material. We also provide a course outline, including course planning, course links, course activities and homework rewards to stimulate students' thinking and learning motivation.

We will provide preferential quotes and teacher resources based on your student number and teaching needs. Please fill in the contact form on the webpage or send an email to service@ai4kids.ai to contact us!

Yes, the "Introduction to Computer Science" (CS1) course in CodeCombat does not require any license to enter. The trial course will be approximately 1-3 hours in length, depending on the student's age and programming background.

Can. When logging in and registering, students select their account type, and then use the teacher's class code to join the class.

Can. The teacher-specific interface provides detailed information on student progress, completion time, and overall class data performance. Teachers can also assign and manage student coursework.

CodeCombat does not currently support iPad devices or Android tablets.

The recommended minimum computer capacity is 4GB, and the browser is Google, Safari, and Windows or Apple system is recommended. The computer network bandwidth needs to be at least 200 Kbps/each student.

The Arena is an open level for students to further hone their learned programming skills. You can allow more advanced students to enter the Arena to explore multiplayer tactics in depth, while lagging students can catch up. When everyone has reached a level where they can enter the Arena, you can then have a tournament. This ensures that every student is at the same level of progress by the end of the course.

CodeCombat includes courses on game design and web development. Become a “creator” within the course unit. At the end of these courses, students can also share links to these works on social media such as WeChat Moments.

Even if students already understand the concepts, we still recommend completing the levels in order to help them get familiar and build a foundation. CodeCombat's levels are logically structured to help students build confidence and make progress. In this way, students can gradually learn how to learn more complex advanced courses.

Teachers also need a license to unlock other levels. Teachers can preview and play all game levels on the course manual page and select a level from the drop-down list. However, the game progress will not be saved.

Please refer to the following steps:

1. Create a teacher account

2. Create a class

3. Add students

No

Go to the Student Licenses page and click "Shared Licenses" under any group license. You can share unused licenses with other teachers in your school.

CodeCombat conducts periodic evaluation of students through the form of "challenge levels". Challenge levels require students to unlock them in the "Computer Science Course". Teachers can view students' course performance in the "Evaluation" tab of each "class".

When students have completed all levels related to a certain topic, the "Topic Challenge Level" will be unlocked, and the "Concept Challenge Level" will replace the section test in the form of a challenge. When students have completed learning 2-4 new concepts, they only need to use at least one related concept to pass the level.

Teachers can click on any student's green (challenge completed) or yellow (challenge in progress) checkmark in the Course Progress tab of a class to compare that student's level code with the CodeCombat course content.

The walkthrough for each level (including challenge levels) can be found in the course guide for the relevant course, then click on the JavaScript or Python option for that level to view the relevant walkthrough. All teachers can view the walkthroughs for the Introduction to Computer Science section, but only teachers who have purchased licenses for their students can view the walkthroughs for all courses.

AP (Advanced Placement) courses are high school preparatory college courses sponsored and authorized by the American Academy of Degrees (College Board). Compared with the learning content of high school, AP courses are more complex and difficult. They are equivalent to the first-year courses in the information department of American universities. If middle school students pass the AP exam, they can exchange them for corresponding American university credits.

AP CSP (Computer Science Principles) course is one of the AP course subjects. Whether it’s 3D animation, engineering, music, app development, medicine, visual design, robotics or financial engineering and business analytics, computer science is the driving force behind technology, development and innovation around the world. Computer science experience has become a necessity for students to succeed in the workplace.

A: CodeCombat is an AP CSP course learning platform certified by the College Board of the United States and is certified by the US AP official website.

CodeCombat's curriculum and professional development programs include everything teachers need to deliver up-to-date computer science curriculum to their students.

Teachers can use our AP CSP curriculum and Professional Development Center as the primary resource for teaching courses and preparing students for the AP exam.

We have prepared sufficient teaching resources to support teachers. Regardless of whether they have a programming background, every teacher can use CodeCombat to teach students fluently.
