Here at Ozobot, we know one thing for certain: teachers are the best. There’s nothing more inspiring than engaging with educators who leverage our products to ignite, captivate, and propel their students to the next level of critical thinking. And, we also know that teachers’ most precious commodity–time–is under constant demand.
For that reason, we have created our self-service professional development platform, so teachers can obtain the critical computer science development they are looking for at a time and place that works for them. This hub for professional learning will provide an array of courses tailored to educators and partners alike. It is ideal for anyone seeking to broaden their comprehension of coding, encompassing both the conceptual framework and the practical steps required to seamlessly incorporate Ozobot into their daily classroom routines. And the best part? Teachers can access the learning when they are in the head space to do so.
Our platform offers an asynchronous learning experience coupled with immediate access to Ozobot’s wealth of educational materials. It allows schools the flexibility to introduce our products to teachers at any time throughout the year, eliminating the need to coordinate schedules for in-person or group sessions.
Ozobot’s self-service platform launches today with three courses:
- Creative Coding with Ozobot Color Codes
