EduCode Academy is an EdTech startup that aims to make learning computer science engaging and accessible to all through its online, self-directed platform. Founded in 2015, the company offers a turn-key software solution designed by university educators, allowing anyone to create a fully immersive learning environment for computer science with zero training.
The company's unique curriculum incorporates the best 21st-century pedagogies - microlearning, contextual learning, and deep learning - to empower teachers to instruct and enable youth as young as 10 to learn university-level computer science. EduCode Academy's offering includes cinematic animated videos for each lesson, providing a dynamic approach to breaking down complex concepts and engaging students. Moreover, it features an extensive library of bite-sized, gamified projects that allow students to interact with the story, practice writing real code, and relate their knowledge to real-world situations.
EduCode Academy is positioned as the only software to not only teach modern students the way they want to learn but also potentially enable them to graduate high school with the equivalent of a Bachelor of Computer Science. However, EduCode Academy has not disclosed its headquarter location or recent investment details.
