Codeacademy:
When looking around for different websites that link with programming, I found Codeacademy. This is a free website (although it does require you to register) that teaches code with things such as Ruby, Python and JavaScript. It also has a section for teachers to track pupils on
Although it’s still in development, the website is working with the Department for Education to provide resources for teachers, including lesson plans. It hopes to one day become a platform for teachers to share Digital Language resources with each other, and I think it’s one to watch!
