We have added all the necessary documents that will assist you on your journey.

01: Organize a Local Competition

Please see below for important resources and tools you can utilise in your volunteering journey to make a difference.

02: Offline Curriculum

Most schools don’t have sufficient connectivity to enable learners to use the online CodeJIKA platform. The offline curriculum enables you to teach without any connectivity and without installing any software.

Teaching Style: Remember, this is mainly self and peer-to-peer driven learning. So as the Coach your job is to enable learners to discuss in small groups every 30 minutes to solve each other’s bugs and make progress. Only after discussing and asking help from another group, should you help them directly.

03: Branding
