MCLS is looking to begin a new partnership with Vidcode. Vidcode was founded in 2014 and provides an accessible and fun way to learn to code. Focused on 3rd through 12th-grade students, but great for any age, Vidcode courses are student-led and web-based - no download required. Plus, Vidcode courses were built specifically around what students are interested in coding; students learn to code through creating meme makers, Snapchat filters, and special effects.

Students can use Vidcode’s courses on their own, like courses from Lynda.com. Or, librarians and educators can lead students through the material using Vidcode’s lesson plans and classroom-in-a-box, created for non-technical and technical teachers alike. 

If you would like to participate in a purchase or trial, please let me know.

All the best,
