Who We Are

CS for EVERY child.

vCoder is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a mission to improve and expand computer science education by utilizing the unique qualities of immersive technologies and spatial computing.

vCoder explores how immersive technology can make coding lessons more engaging and accessible to students.

vCoder has a special focus towards empowering young women, underrepresented groups, under-served populations and promoting diversity in tech.

vCoder provides a dynamic, interactive, immersive, and focused way to learn computer science. It’s a new platform option for learning how to code – a coding bootcamp in VR.

On an epic quest, users learn computer science fundamentals while coding in real-time with a positive goal to solve problems and transform the world around them.

Our Story

How Can vCoder make a positive impact on the world?

vCoder teaches the fundamentals of coding in VR and supports United Nations Sustainable Development Goals such as:

  • Quality Education
  • Gender Equality
  • Decent Work and Economic Growth
  • Reduced Inequalities

We believe education and technology can change the world and coding is vitally important to all 17 sustainable development goals.

The Problem & Challenge

Computer science develops creativity, reasoning, and problem-solving skills. Too many students still lack opportunities to explore these subjects, particularly in underserved communities.

Why Teach Code In VR?

Learning computer science matters. We live in a world surrounded by technology and the solutions of tomorrow will involve technology in some way, making computer science important to every industry.

We believe vCoder and virtual reality can be part of the solution.

1. We believe virtual reality can spark students' curiosity and attract more learners to computer science.

2. Immersive lessons can help learners interact with abstract programming concepts in visual, hands-on ways. We continue to explore where these approaches can support education.

3. VR enables the presentation of abstract computer science fundamentals in an immersive, visual way like never before possible. We believe that with virtual reality we can improve the challenging aspects of programming.

vCoder uses interactive virtual reality experiences to introduce learners to computer science concepts.
