  I also occasionally use schoolhouse.world for free tutoring/study groups if im having trouble grasping a concept or need motivation for work. Source: 7 months ago

• Do I put the certification? Do I get more?

  Hi, short-time lurker here. I am applying to MIT, and in the portal, it asks for a schoolhouse.world certification. I technically am, but only in one subject, and I haven't done any tutoring. So my question is should I certify myself in more subjects, tutor more, and/or don't put it at all? Source: 8 months ago

• Trouble using phole to open schoolhouse.world

  It appears schoolhouse.world is IPV6 only resolvable. Pihole searches in ipv4 and doesnt open this address at all. Source: 11 months ago

• [High School] I'm a high schooler and was never taught any sort of math, where do I even start?

  In addition to Khan Academy, https://schoolhouse.world/ looks like it could be a great resource for you. It is free tutoring connected to KA. Source: about 1 year ago

• wasian male beats the odds (class of 2026 results)

  Tutor, schoolhouse.world - finally, something specific. I was one of the first 200 tutors on this platform. Check it out! The mission is really cool and it's founded by Sal Khan (Khan Academy). Source: about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Modern Day Equivalent to HyperCard?

  LiveCode is about the closest literal logical successor to HyperCard. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LiveCode?wprov=sfti1 That said, I think Scratch is a better learning environment these days and you can develop workable apps in the style of HyperCard. There are plenty of tutorials, documentation, and examples to work from. https://scratch.mit.edu. - Source: Hacker News / 13 days ago

• Screen-free coding for children: the xylophone maze

  And https://codecombat.com, which has been around for a while now. I think this paradigm (navigating a character using "move" function invocations) is good but kind of exhausts its usefulness after a while. I question whether my daughter learns coding this way or just is playing a turn based top down platformer. The most code like thing is when you use 'loops' to have characters repeat sequences of moves. I... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: Yo wants to build a game, I'm lost. What can I do?

  +1 Scratch! My son started with it, then expanded into Roblox/Lua. Children can download other people's games and experiment there. Scratch also has pre-made art, sounds, music. https://scratch.mit.edu/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Ask HN: Yo wants to build a game, I'm lost. What can I do?

  I am also going to highly recommend Scratch[1]. That is what got me into a programming around that age. You can even help him make a website to host his games on. [1]: https://scratch.mit.edu/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Ask HN: Yo wants to build a game, I'm lost. What can I do?

  This ! Learning to code will come after, spending time with your son writing down ideas might be more fun at first and it's a good time to teach him that games are thoughts first and then coded after. I would have recommended Scratch [1] for a first introduction instead of hoping into code right away, but since he is 9yo he will most likely want to hop on big game engine like he sees his favorite youtubers doing.... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
