Automated Code.org Class Progress Digests
Every Friday, WebRun opens Code.org, checks each student's lesson and unit progress for the week, saves the progress report to Google Drive, and posts a class-wide digest to Slack for your teaching team.
How do I track my class's weekly progress on Code.org?
WebRun checks Code.org every Friday for each student's lesson and unit progress, saves the week's report to Google Drive, and posts a class-wide digest to Slack naming who is stuck and who jumped ahead, so your teaching team sees the whole class's momentum without opening every student's account by hand.
- Stuck students are flagged before they fall further behind
- Progress reports are archived automatically every week
- The teaching team sees class-wide momentum in one Slack post

Questions, answered
Does it contact students or parents directly?
No. The digest only goes to your teaching-team Slack channel. WebRun never emails or messages a student or parent on its own.
Will it change any student progress or grades?
No. It only reads progress from Code.org and reports it. Nothing in a student's account is edited.
How does it flag students who are stuck?
It compares this week's unit and lesson position against last week's, so anyone with no movement for 2 weeks is called out automatically.
