Overview
The Digital Adventures curriculum goes beyond traditional software concepts to teach students the problem-solving techniques and social-emotional skills that are critical for real-world technology development. Our immersive, project-based learning experiences are designed to trigger curiosity, stimulate creativity and sow the seeds of life-long learning.
Our modular project walkthroughs use a hint-based system so students only get as much help as they need. We automatically assess progress based on how much support students use, so they learn to work as independently as possible.
We start students in a safe, guardrailed environment with lots of platform-provided hints and instructor guidance. As they become more confident and knowledgable, we progressively remove this structure until students achieve mastery by building projects completely on their own.
