Thanks for the comment! I agree, student feedback will be an important stage as we progress with this.

I will definitely check out Future Design School’s work with Swift Playgrounds as well. I did some research and demos of Swift Playgrounds, and really liked what I saw! Apple has an in depth teachers guide for it here, if…Read more

I agree. Understanding why coding is important is the critical step in the process. There’s some great info in the NMC/CoSN Horizon Report: 2016 K-12 Edition (page 16…”Coding as a Literacy” section)

“Code.org recently projected that by 2020, there will be 1.4 million computing jobs but only 400,000 computer science students to…
