Skill Struck’s lesson plans are based on a track system that offers flexibility. Teachers have the ability to lock classes, monitor student progress and determine how far students can go. There are also extra challenges available at the end of each lesson for students who are progressing quickly and need more to do.  

Teachers can add their own assignments, but they won't show up on the tracker and they won't be autograded.

Skill Struck can offer semester-long licenses. Learn more about pricing for semester licenses by contacting us at hello@skillstruck.com. 

Skill Struck has three different types of licenses for schools, including a per-seat license, site license and district license. A per-seat license allows schools to pay a set price for each student participating on the platform. This is a great solution if there is only one coding class, a small number of students or perhaps an after-school club. The site license is generally used by one school location and provides access to all teachers and students at that particular location. A district license will accommodate multiple schools/sites across an entire school district. 

We also offer an individual “Family account,” which is based on a monthly/yearly subscription and provides access to all users within a family, using the same login. You may create an unlimited number of files for individual users; however, only one user can use the progress reporting feature on this type of account.  All account users  on our platform have access to our engaging curriculum, a full text editor, support, and the ability to create a student portfolio of projects. Additionally, students also have the ability to compete in fun challenges, and customize their very own digital avatar on the site (only one avatar per Family Account).

Skill Struck Voyage works on any computer with an internet connection. It works on tablets as long as the tablet has a modern browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox) that is up to date. To effectively learn to code and program, it is recommended that students use a device with access to a keyboard.

Skill Struck Voyage functions with all browsers; however, it is recommended that you use Google Chrome, Firefox, or Safari for Skill Struck Launchpad and Voyage. There is no recommended operating system as Skill Struck will work on both Mac OS and Windows.

Google Chrome aligns best with our platform, but other browsers should work.
