Each Kodable course is a collection of game levels and videos related to a specific topic. In the game, each course is its own planet! Learners can explore all the courses by traveling around the galaxy map, shown below:


The fire symbolizes the level of difficulty for each course, serving as an indicator for students. They have the flexibility to navigate through the galaxy in a clockwise direction or explore different courses based on their preferences and interests.

Courses FAQs:

What is in each course?

Each Kodable course is a collection of self-directed game levels and videos focused on a specific topic, with a course map and special landmarks for students to explore.

Each course follows a learning progression, introducing concepts through missions tailored to younger learners. Practice levels allow students to master the material, adapting to their skill level. At specific points, assessment levels test their understanding, with no hints, providing teachers with accurate insights. If needed, practice mode automatically offers additional opportunities before retaking assessments. To learn more about these exciting updates, click below:

In what order should learners complete the courses?

Every learner will start with the same Kodable Basics course. Once this course is completed, the rest of the Galaxy will open up. From there, learners can choose which planets/courses they wish to explore - there is no required order. Premium and Premium+ teachers have the option to assign or un-assign courses at any time, which will control what courses students have access to.

How do I assign courses?

Assigning courses is simple! You can learn more about assigning courses to your students by checking out this article.

Why do all kids need to do the Kodable Basics course first?

Kodable Basics introduces some foundational coding concepts as well as orients learners to the Kodable game. It's important for learners to get a feel for what Kodable is like and gain some confidence before moving on to the rest of the game.

How do my students/children get access to "Pro" levels?

There are two ways to get access to Pro levels! 1) Schools can purchase a site license to upgrade to Pro and get school-wide access to all for all student profiles during the hours of 7-4pm local time. 2) Parents can purchase a Pro membership so the learner will get access to premium levels while playing at home after 4pm.
