Sphero Edu Lesson CodesUpdated 5 months ago

What Are Lesson Codes?

In Sphero Edu, each lesson has a unique ID. You can enter this ID in the in-app lesson code finder to directly access the lesson without the need to search, filter, sort, or use website URLs.

Here are good use cases for Lesson Codes:

  • As a general learner or teacher, you find a great lesson on the Sphero Central website for Sphero Edu, and you want to quickly open it in the native apps or the web app
  • As a teacher, you want a simple way to share a lesson in your classroom so your students can quickly work on it
  • As a teacher or parent, you want to share lessons with with your students or children who don't have accounts

Here's a video guide for teachers on how to use Lesson Codes.
