BrainPOP Turns 20
BrainPOP marked its twentieth anniversary at the end of 2019. Time flies! Read about our journey–where we started and where we’re going as we empower a new generation of creators and critical thinkers.

Coding for Everyone!
Recognizing the importance of the countless skills students develop when coding–from critical thinking to perseverance–we now include Creative Coding in our school subscriptions. By giving everyone access to our coding projects, embedded into every topic, we are committed to making it simple and approachable for any teacher to weave computational thinking into any lesson.  Take a peek at student samples to see first hand  the power of coding in the classroom.
