Rogers SD Case Study

CodeMonkey ofrece una forma divertida y atractiva de enseƱar los estĆ”ndares del bloque de codificaciĆ³n de nuestro estado.

Rogers Public Schools District – Elmwood Middle School | Rogers, Ar

Our state requires that all students in Keycode (offered to 7th and 8th graders) get 5 straight weeks of a ā€œcoding blockā€ that involvestext-based coding, not block coding. Our district, with teacher input and feedback, decided to use CodeMonkey to meet this need.

Key Challenges:

We are a large district, and each middle school assigns teachers to teach Keycode based on different criteria. It is not uncommon to have teachers at some of our middle schools assigned to teach a coding block who have zero experience with coding. Using CodeMonkey helps each school teach the same standards and tasks, at a similar pace, and it is easier for those teachers who have little to no experience with coding to teach the subject matter.

Implementation of CodeMonkey:

We typically use CodeMonkey near the end of the semester, for a minimum of 5 consecutive weeks, in all of our KeyCode classes. We use Coding Adventure Parts 1, 2, and 3. The onboarding process gets easier for the teachers as they use it from year to year. It can be difficult initially. It really helps to have a lead teacher at each building to help new teachers with the process initially.

Impact on Students and Teachers:

Some of our student population move between the different middle schools in our district, and using CodeMonkey has really helped those students who move from another middle school in the district to jump into a new class with a more seamless transition and less loss of content knowledge, etc.

Achievement of Goals:

The goal is to provide a fun and engaging way of teaching the state Coding Block standards. We are achieving this goal with the use of CodeMonkey. We havenā€™t already achieved this goal, but we are making progress.
