CodeQuest (iPad and iPhone App)

Supplemental tactile game board grids and manipulatives are available for download and embossing in the Downloads tab of this page. These can be printed from a tactile graphic embosser or regular embosser with a brf file.

Teachers can create tactile grids for this app by using other APH products, such as APH Bold Line Tactile Graph Sheets, Graphic Aid for Mathematics, and Hundred Boards and Manipulatives: Grid Board. For example, the manipulative tiles in the Hundred Boards and Manipulatives can be used to represent an astronaut, walls, and a spaceship. Sticking them onto the grid board of the kit can quickly create the grids used in the CodeQuest games.

The CodeQuest app can also be used with an accessibility switch (like AbleNet’s Blue2). One button can be programmed to move the cursor while the other is used to click.

Here’s what our TVI Field Testers had to say:
“Excellent for teaching mapping, giving directions, and coding. Straightforward expectations and game rules. My students loved this app.”

“My students were excited about the app and even requested to play it again once they had completed it. I could see this app as a benefit to my students with little or no vision. There are a lot of skills being taught in one game.”
