Grok Academy provides a cutting-edge platform for online learning in a tutorial like environment. Students learn at their own pace, receiving detailed feedback about their progress from our intelligent auto-marking system. Lecturers and tutors can see their students' progress, interact with them in our live chat or forums, and download learning metrics to evaluate their course.
Our team has decades of experience lecturing, tutoring, and developing university programming courses.
In addition to around 600 schools, Grok Academy is used by universities including: The University of Melbourne, The University of Sydney, Macquarie University, the Australian Catholic University and community organisations including: the Cambodian Children's Trust and Code.org.
We can provide the platform, to host course material and assessments for courses that involve programming.
We provide complete courses for students to catch up the necessary background for a course with assumed knowledge.
We have experience customising existing courses to suit the requirements of a particular Unit of Study.
The University of Sydney used Grok Academy's content authoring, delivery and auto-marking tools to engage students in their Data-driven Astronomy MOOC.
Students were challenged with university-level data science problems, all using real-world datasets and a range of IT tools such as databases and machine learning.
Grok Academy provided in-depth support and integration, supporting packages such as numpy and psycopg2, and providing an interactive tutorial environment to supplement the online video lectures.
We used LTI to allow direct integration with the Coursera MOOC platform so that students had a seamless learning experience and assessment marks were returned directly to Coursera.
Grok Academy's involvement resulted in a highly engaging course that helped develop deep understanding for students.
