We're thrilled to announce that Python in Pieces has won an Educational Resources Award (ERA) in the Secondary Resource or Equipment – ICT category!
Python in Pieces by 2Simple is designed to increase confidence in Python, the text-based coding language. The platform caters to students, teachers, and parents with minimal programming experience. We have always been proud of how well Python in Pieces supports users in bridging the gap between block-based and text-based Python coding, it's fantastic to have this recognised by ERA's panel of judges.
“Python in Pieces is an invaluable resource for secondary schools because it bridges the gap between block-based and text-based Python coding. It's intuitive and engaging, making it accessible even for non-specialist teachers at a time when recruitment of qualified computing teachers can be a challenge for many settings.”
The platform's unique feature of seamlessly translating between block code and Python, in both directions, allows students to transition effortlessly from the requirements of Key Stage 2 (KS2) to Key Stage 3 (KS3). As well as this invaluable feature, the platform offers over 100 engaging coding activities that facilitate self-paced learning and a wealth of teacher tools to support and monitor student progression.
You can explore the platform yourself by trying a lesson for free or signing up for a free 14 day trial to access the entire platform.
