Unlike other instructional technology products, STEMscopes Coding requires no clunky hardware or expensive labs. All you need is a computer to introduce your students to the world of coding. Powered by Bitsbox, STEMscopes Coding is an affordable, exciting way to teach your students how to build and share their own, personalized apps. The best part, teachers? No prior coding experience is required—we offer embedded support throughout the program, and students can easily figure it out on their own!

Not Your Average Coding Program

Other coding programs simulate the process with block-based learning. We do it differently. STEMscopes Coding allows your students to type their JavaScript code for a fully hands-on, personalized experience. On top of that, they’ll have a blast! In fact, your students will love it so much, you may spot them coding apps at recess.

Teach Coding With Confidence

The IDEA lesson model provides constructivist pedagogy and facilitation to guide you through instruction. While lessons and key concept moments are provided, students can code apps independently or as an at-home project.

I

Illuminate
Excite students about building their own app!

D

Do
Students design an app, then share their successes and questions.

E

Extend
Students who are able to code their initial app can improve their understanding with additional challenges.

A

Assess
Exit tickets allow students to reflect on their accomplishments and express their thinking.

Go Ahead,
Try It!

STEMscopes Coding features three types of projects: App, How Do I, and Challenge. For App projects, we provide an example of the code while students follow along. How Do I projects walk students through a specific task, and Challenge projects allow students to use their newly learned knowledge to write their own code.
