I printed out the slides from the fabulous PowerPoint file and the kids will appreciate using that as a reference. Love the vocab page. Love the assignment page. Completely in love with the cliffs notes and little GIFs depicting concepts. So impressive.

Mastery Coding Simplifies Learning Unity for High Schoolers

Unity is a huge package and pretty complicated so having something like Mastery Coding is really important because it gives a structure to go through the most important parts of what would otherwise be an overwhelming tool for the students... Using Mastery Coding, student could go from not knowing anything to actually having something working and feeling good about what they're doing.

Why High School Coding Education Matters

As technology reshapes nearly every industry, coding education is becoming essential for high school students. Jobs in computer and information technology are projected to grow nearly 15% from 2021 to 2031, much faster than the average for all occupations, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Yet only 6.4% of high school students were enrolled in foundational computer science courses in the last year.

By integrating coding classes for high schoolers into the curriculum, schools can bridge this gap and equip students with the digital literacy, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills crucial for success in today’s workforce. Read our article about the benefits of taking coding courses in high school to learn more.
