Why Ellipsis Education?

Computer science provides meaningful context for the learning of Technology Application TEKS.
District partners choose to work with Ellipsis Education because they share our beliefs:

Computer science should be taught.

Ellipsis is a full curriculum that uses best practices for teaching and learning – just like any math or science program. 

Computer science education should begin as early as kindergarten.

Students can code before they can read. Early drag-and-drop coding supports early numeracy and literacy.

Computer science is more than just coding.

Ellipsis includes four lesson types – unplugged, coding, digital citizenship, and STEM Careers – to support a comprehensive view of computer science.

Any teacher can teach and any student can learn computer science.

Ellipsis curriculum gives teachers the right materials and resources, so they can shine, regardless of experience.
