ERB CTP Online vs VEXcode 123

The Comprehensive Testing Program (CTP 5) is a battery of assessments designed to provide instructionally useful information about student performance in the key areas of school achievement: listening, reading, vocabulary, writing, and mathematics. In addition, CTP 5 includes for test levels 3 - 10 two tests to measure verbal and quantitative reasoning. The results of these measures can be used to compare more content-specific, curriculum-based measures of performance (scores on the achievement tests) to the more general, derived skills that both result from and enable school achievement (scores on the reasoning tests). This comparison can prove to be highly useful, especially for identifying those students whose skills and achievement scores show marked discrepancies. The online version is available through the CTP Portal for instant scoring and a science test in test levels 3 through 10. We know time is of the essence, so all of our online assessments provide instant feedback to schools and students, enabling real time guidance for instruction and learning.

From elementary school through college, VEXcode is a coding environment that meets students at their level. The intuitive layout of VEXcode allows students to get started quickly and easily. VEXcode is consistent across Blocks and Text, across VEX 123, VEX GO, VEX IQ, and VEX V5. As students progress from elementary, middle, and high school, they never have to learn a different blocks, code, or toolbar interface. As a result, students can focus on creating with technology, not trying to navigate a new layout. Drive Forward is the new Hello World We all know that robots attract kids to learn. VEX Robotics and VEXcode are providing opportunities for students of all ages to participate in learning the code that makes these robots work. VEX makes computer science come to life through collaborations, hands-on projects, and engaging experiences. From classrooms to competitions, VEXcode helps to create the next generation of innovators. Drag. Drop. Drive. VEXcode is the perfect platform for those new to coding. Students use the simple drag and drop interface to create functioning programs. Each block's purpose can easily be identified using the visual cues like its shape, color, and label. We've designed VEXcode to allow those who are new to robotics to get their robot up and running faster. Now, students can focus on being creative and learning computer science concepts, not stuck trying to figure out the interface. More accessible than ever VEXcode even helps across language barriers, allowing student to read blocks and comment programs in their native language. Drag & Drop. Powered by Scratch Blocks. Students and Teachers will feel instantly at home with this familiar environment. Video Tutorials. Grasp concepts faster. Built-in tutorials cover every aspect needed to get up to speed fast. And more tutorials are coming. Help is always there. Getting information on blocks is fast and easy. These resources were written by educators, in a form both teachers and students will grasp quickly. Drivetrain Blocks. A breakthrough in simplicity. From driving forward, making precise turns, setting speed, and stopping precisely, VEXcode makes it easier than ever to control a robot.
