The most effective solution
Everything you need to create and deliver engaging computing courses for coding in university
Codio’s college computer science platform makes it easy to deliver engaging computing learning experiences with templated labs, auto-graded assessments, instant student feedback, customizable courseware, and research-based instructional tools.
Instant, Meaningful Feedback for Students
Using Codio’s auto-grading features, you can instantly provide students feedback demonstrating why their solution is correct or incorrect. Our rubric tool will allow you to assign full or partial points depending on your set parameters in our college computer science platform. You can couple instant automated feedback with your own manual feedback utilizing Codio’s remote teaching feedback toolkit, including Cursor Presence and Code Commenting.

Install and utilize any language or framework
Teaching Intro to Programming, Data Science, or Statistics just got easier. You can use tools you are familiar with like Jupyter Notebooks, R Studio, and Scratch with the Codio platform. Additionally, Codio projects run on their own Ubuntu box, meaning that any compatible software or language can easily be run.
Teach everything from data science and statistics to CS and software engineering
Codio is built for all forms of computing education, making learning by doing as accessible as possible. Codio conveniently pairs instructional content and a code editor in the same browser tab. Additionally, Codio includes niche tools such as our code visualizer which allows students to see their code executing, including how computers navigate complex flow and structures.
Sophisticated auto-grading that's easy to configure
Emphasize learner process over product
Behavior Insights in our college computer science platform seamlessly integrates individual learner behavioral metrics like:
- Time Spent
- Coding vs. Debugging Time
- History of External Pastes
- Enhanced, Multi-File Code Playback with Pastes
- Insertions vs. Deletions
- Rate of Edits (Characters per Second)
Achieve better learning outcomes for students
An ACM research paper found that "the use of Codio has coincided with a steady increase in student performance and satisfaction."1 Instructors using Codio have reported an average increase in student satisfaction of over 10%, while student grade performance increases by over 15%.
