Code School Finland
Code School Finland (CSF) is a Finnish expert organization bringing coding,robotics and AI education into the early learning arena. Their focus is in the R-9 education development. CSF empower teachers through their research-based methods in project-based learning and strengthen 21st century skills development. The aim is to educate teachers in project-based teaching methodologies that foster computational thinking, creativity, innovation and self-confidence. CSF provide learning materials, teacher capacity building programs and certification of teachers. CSF in collaboration with Contextualized Learning Solutions offer a great deal of flexibility to align the modules with the curriculum at hand.
The curriculum and teaching materials are based on academic research and Finnish education model. We align with the learning objectives of international and national CAPS curricula (when finalized) .
With our help all teachers – even those with no computer science background – can start teaching technology and future skills in K-12.
