Tech

For the best coding experience, mobile students are encouraged to have one device for coding and one device for Zoom.📱💻 Students who are coding on computers can use the same device for both if they know how to switch back and forth between the two applications. 

Headsets are not necessary, but do provide a more focused experience and tend to block out more background noise. 🎧

Before Class

Students should ensure their devices are compatible with the Scratch 3.0 app or can access the Scratch website. Students should also be comfortable with the device they will be coding on as this class does not help with computer literacy skills.
