May 6, 2022, Code School Finland

There are lots of options for schools to consider when selecting the tools, platforms and solutions for their coding education. The two most popular visual block coding environments are Code.org and Scratch. Have you ever wondered which is better for you?

We have made it easy for you and prepared a easy-to-read summary which compares the two environments. We present their strengths and weaknesses from the viewpoint of learning and teaching code.

If you are still wondering why a school should have coding education at all, here’s an interesting article asking why students should be coding.

Code.org and Scratch are the most widely known environments all over the world for teaching code to beginners in primary and middle school grades. There are several differences to these environments. And furthermore – how do they compare with Code School Finland?

The summary and a handy downloadable feature comparison is available via our online course portal for free.
