Questions

Do learners need to install Java?

No. Code Conjurer runs Java in the browser, so it works on school computers and Chromebooks where installing software is not allowed. A keyboard makes coding much easier than a phone.

Which curriculum does it follow?

The lessons follow Information Technology for Grades 10 to 12, for both IEB and CAPS schools, and finish with the question patterns that appear in IEB exams.
