Welcome back to school! Check out the Back to School Guide to help you get set up and prepared for a year of teaching with CodeHS. This guide includes recently updated Week Zero Lesson Plans and many other similar resources to help make sure you’re ready for your first day and the year ahead.
The JavaScript Question of the Day (QOTD) is a daily question created by the CodeHS team to help review concepts for Intro to Computer Science in Javascript! The questions run throughout the school year and build from basic concepts covered in the beginning of the course to more advanced concepts as the year progresses.
The daily questions will begin the day after Labor Day on Tuesday, September 3rd!
With the new CodeHS Collaborate tool, you can monitor student progress in real-time, assist with live code debugging, and illustrate coding concepts directly within student assignments—all from a single platform on your computer. The tool offers three modes: Watch, Collaborate, and Classic. This feature is exclusively available with CodeHS Pro. You can upgrade to CodeHS Pro here!
We've added two new lessons to the Practice: Karel module, a supplemental part of our main JavaScript courses, to better support students in learning how to program with Karel.
'Karel Syntax, IDE, and Commands,' is designed for students who need additional help with syntax programming and navigating our IDE.
'Debugging with Karel,' offers videos, activities, and reflection questions that provide extra resources and practice in debugging.
These activities can be assigned individually based on the current topic students are studying—just remember to review the starter code before assigning.
