The Description

Almost all of the jobs my students will hold in the future will require them to have working knowledge of technology and programming. This year I want to engage my students in coding lessons with Pythonroom. Not only will it help them build critical skills in computer science and programming language, but it will also Develop key critical thinking and problem solving skills.

With Pythonroom’s curriculum students will have access to over hundreds of problems that will move their understanding past basic block-based languages and will have them coding in an actual programming language. Since Pythonroom is designed for teachers, it will also allow me to identify common misunderstandings as well as to how best apply these skills in the real world.

This is where you come in! Pythonroom comes at a small cost and every dollar you invest brings it one step closer to my students.

Here is the breakdown in cost for fundraising for Pythonroom

  • Pythonroom - $300.00
  • Preferred Partner Program (10%) - $36.60
  • PledgeCents Platform Fee (5%) - $18.30
  • Processing Fee (3%) - $10.98
  • Total - $366.00 (rounded up to the nearest dollar)

If I do not meet my goal I will pay the balance out of my classroom budget.

About the Creator

I have been teaching computer applications and coding for 25 years. I currently teach technology courses at Villa Intermediate School in Santa Ana, CA. Our student body is composed of low income Hispanic and Asian students. We are working on bridging the education gape by offering our students real-world technology experiences. I use Pythonroom as part of my Project Lead The Way Introduction to Computer Science class.
