Why can I no longer create profiles in Blockly

Modified on Fri, Sep 15, 2023 at 4:05 PM

Profiles now require a Make Wonder (Formerly Class Connect) license. Existing profiles created before this change should still be able to be accessed. Uninstalling the app will remove these existing profiles. 

The change was made to improve the experience for our teachers and Blockly users. 

 

Users can now use any device linked to a Make Wonder (Formerly Class Connect) license and access their profile. The user does not have to use the same device now and if it's not available would then be unable to continue the progress. 

 

All Data within the profile is now stored on a cloud. This change was intended to ensure the utmost security and privacy among the users and teachers. 

 

The profiles can now be accessed via the teacher and her dashboard without the need for the device. Teachers can now view the student's progress via a dashboard and no longer need to have the specific device to check on student progress. 

Make Wonder (Formerly Class Connect) license we feel, provides a great benefit to teachers as they welcome their students to 

STEM learning. Some of the features that comes with a Class Connect license include, 

 

As mentioned, the profile system for tracking student progress in real-time

Access to the professional development course for teachers 

Access to the online Curriculum, including the learn to code lesson library

Access to the Dash’s neighborhood virtual robot, Compatible devices are required for this feature, IOS 13+ and Chromebooks

Access to the new Math Curriculum. 

Entry to the WLRC Robotics Competition 

Access to the New Challenge Card Learning interface (requires physical robot)

Access to the Robust Coding Pathway's teaching system. Coding Pathways: a collection of online courses that deliver instruction, pose challenges, and build coding skills (Only compatible with the Virtual Robot)
