EduCode Academy
EduCode Academy is revolutionizing coding education with story-based experiential learning. Their goal is simple yet powerful — to help students master computer science through interactive narratives that make complex concepts engaging and accessible.
Overview
EduCode Academy is transforming coding education for young learners with experiential, story-based learning. Their goal is simple yet powerful — to empower the next generation of innovators by making computer science accessible, engaging, and fun through animated stories and gamified projects. EduCode Academy breaks down complex coding concepts into bite-sized microlessons, helping students aged 10-18 master essential programming skills at their own pace.
EduCode Academy partnered with Infigic Technologies to design and develop the complete learning platform from the ground up, connecting interactive video lessons, real-time code execution, and AI-powered feedback with an intuitive, educationally sound user experience built for students, parents, and educators.
The Challenge
EduCode Academy envisioned a coding education platform that could compete in the crowded edtech space while offering something fundamentally different. The challenge was to build an entire learning ecosystem that made coding genuinely engaging for students who might otherwise find computer science intimidating or boring. The new platform needed to:
- Deliver 810+ animated video microlessons with synchronized coding exercises and gamified projects
- Support multiple programming languages (JavaScript, Python, HTML, CSS) with real-time code execution
- Implement AI-driven code correction that recognizes multiple solutions and provides personalized feedback
- Create separate portals for students, parents, and educators with role-specific features and dashboards
- Build a scalable architecture supporting both individual subscriptions and school-wide implementations
- Align curriculum content with CSTA K-12 Standards and K-12 Computer Science Framework
Our Approach
Infigic's design, engineering, and content teams worked in close collaboration with EduCode Academy's educational specialists and curriculum designers. We architected the platform across four learning paths (JavaScript Programming, Game Development, Web Development, and Data Science) with three experience levels. The focus was on creating a unified experience where every feature — from animated story videos to instant code feedback — worked intuitively, fostering confidence and curiosity rather than confusion and frustration.
