Systems and methods for customized lesson creation and application
A computer-implemented method according to various aspects of the present disclosure includes modifying a lesson module, by a computer system. The modifying the lesson module includes generating an activity. The activity includes a coding puzzle and a puzzle runner mode. The method also includes, in the puzzle runner mode, displaying an indication that the coding puzzle is solved after the coding puzzle is solved and displaying a code runtime area showing a step-by-step execution of manipulated code of the lesson module.
1. A method, comprising:
modifying a lesson module, by a computer system,
wherein modifying the lesson module comprises generating an activity, and
wherein the activity comprises a coding puzzle and a puzzle runner mode; and
in the puzzle runner mode, displaying an indication that the coding puzzle is solved after the coding puzzle is solved and displaying a code runtime area showing a step-by-step execution of manipulated code of the lesson module.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the manipulated code comprises visual code blocks.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the manipulated code comprises source code.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the activity comprises a debugging puzzle.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the activity comprises a quiz.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein modifying the lesson module comprises adding a parameter to the lesson module.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein modifying the lesson module comprises removing a parameter from the lesson module.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein modifying the lesson module comprises modifying a parameter in the lesson module.
9. The method of claim 1 , comprising monitoring, by the computer system, progress by a user in using the lesson module,
wherein the monitoring of the progress of the user comprises determining the user is successful in using the lesson module and providing the user with a second lesson module, and
wherein a concept taught in the second lesson module is relates to a concept taught in the lesson module.
10. The method of claim 9 , wherein determining that the user is successful in using the lesson module is based on one or more of: the user using at least a portion of the lesson module within a predetermined period of time, and the user answering at least a predetermined number of questions in a lesson plan of the lesson module correctly.
11. The method of claim 9 , wherein the monitoring of the progress of the user comprises determining the user is unsuccessful in using the lesson module.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein determining that the user is unsuccessful in using the lesson module is based on one or more of: the user using at least a portion of the lesson module beyond a predetermined period of time, and the user answering at least a predetermined number of questions in a lesson plan of the lesson module incorrectly.
13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the lesson module is provided to the user to repeat in response to the determination that the user is unsuccessful in using the lesson module.
14. The method of claim 11 , wherein in response to the determination that the user is unsuccessful in using the lesson module, the user is provided with an additional lesson module to use that is customized based on a personal interest of the user identified in corresponding user information.
15. The method of claim 11 , wherein in response to the determination that the user is unsuccessful in using the lesson module, the user is provided with an additional lesson module used by one or more other users.
16. The method of claim 11 , wherein a second module is provided to the user in response to the determination that the user is unsuccessful in using the lesson module, wherein the second module reinforces at least some concepts taught in the lesson module.
17. The method of claim 9 , wherein the monitoring of the progress of the user comprises identifying a number of visual code blocks used by the user in using a portion of the lesson module.
18. The method of claim 9 , comprising reporting the progress of the user to a second supervising the user.
19. A system comprising: at least one processor; and memory in communication with the at least one processor and storing instructions that are executable by the at least one processor to cause the at least one processor to:
modifying a lesson module,
wherein modifying the lesson module comprises generating an activity, and
wherein the activity comprises a coding puzzle and a puzzle runner mode; and
in the puzzle runner mode, display an indication that the coding puzzle is solved after the coding puzzle is solved and displaying a code runtime area showing a step-by-step execution of manipulated code of the lesson module.
20. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that when executed cause a computing device to:
modifying a lesson module,
wherein modifying the lesson module comprises generating an activity, and
wherein the activity comprises a coding puzzle and a puzzle runner mode; and
in the puzzle runner mode, display an indication that the coding puzzle is solved after the coding puzzle is solved and displaying a code runtime area showing a step-by-step execution of manipulated code of the lesson module.
