Resources: project archive and evaluation

A stack of documents fanned out diagonally, with one sheet pulled forward and marked by a single square.

The archive

Archive

The No One Left Behind project

Funding, duration and the consortium behind the Horizon 2020 project this domain carried from 2015 to 2017.

Archive

Create@School

The classroom app built on Pocket Code: what it did in lessons, and where its evaluation was published.

Archive

The pilot schools

The classroom trials in three countries, what was actually measured, and why the published record covers only the Spanish end of it.

Archive

Pocket Code

The free, open-source mobile coding environment the whole project was built on, and where it lives now.

Reference

Publications

The research record behind this domain: full citations with DOIs, which of them are open access, and which studies we know exist but have not found.

Glossary

Plain definitions for the terms this field uses without explaining them, written for someone who has never taught computing.

Editorial standards

Where the facts come from, where the judgement comes from, and the things this site does not do.

What is here now

There is no library of worksheets, slide decks or lesson plans on this domain yet. What exists is the record behind it: the project archive, the Create@School classroom tool, the pilot schools where it was tried, and Pocket Code, the app underneath all of it. The teaching approach itself was assessed in a peer-reviewed paper: Gaeta, E. et al., “Evaluation of the Create@School Game-Based Learning–Teaching Approach”, Sensors 2019, 19(15), 3251, doi:10.3390/s19153251. It is open access, we have read it in full, and what it establishes is worked through on the pilot report and the page on how it was rated. The full citation and where to read it are on the publications page.

What good material looks like

Not everything billed as a teaching resource earns a teacher's time. What we would want to link to here carries an open licence rather than sitting behind a locked PDF, works without an account or an email address collected at the door, and can be edited: a worksheet you can retype, a slide you can rearrange, not a scan you can only print. Anything that fails those tests does not survive a 45-minute lesson with 25 pupils on shared school hardware.

What comes next

This is where classroom-ready downloads will sit once they exist: worksheets, reference sheets and slide decks built for the tools covered in the classroom and at-home hubs. None of that is published yet, and we would rather say so plainly than link to material that is not there.
