Student Experience

Our program inspires autonomous learners who are increasingly invested in their work over time, building knowledge they're proud of and a sense of belonging in their classrooms.

Ethical Reasoning

Hello World CS guides learners to examine the societal impact of their work. Students address ethical questions that have no obvious correct answer, deepen their knowledge with the latest news and research, and use reasoning, programming and communication skills to develop and defend a point of view.

 

Driving Real-World Impact

We’re building deep, meaningful learning experiences that embolden students to take action beyond the classroom. Read how one of our students helped U.S. immigrants understand their rights by building an Alexa app.
