Three major new releases, fresh teacher PD, and new ideas for the classroom.
Over the past few months we’ve been busy expanding MyComputerBrain with three major releases. Today, we're excited to bring you CurveLab, a groundbreaking interactive mathematics function analysis tool, Cyber Command, our first cybersecurity in-classroom battle arena tournament, and a completely refurbished AI and robotics course.
These additions continue our goal of providing engaging, curriculum-aligned, deep learning experiences that help students understand how technology works and how it can enrich their lives.

📈 CurveLab
We’re excited to introduce CurveLab, a free mathematics tool designed to help students explore functions and develop confidence with curve sketching and analytics.
Students can graph functions, analyse derivatives, identify turning points and intercepts, and compare their own derivative calculations against the correct solution—all within a single interactive learning environment. CurveLab is ideal for classroom demonstrations, revision, and independent practice.
⚔️ Cyber Command
Our fist Battle Arena activity, Cyber Command, transforms Python programming into an exciting head-to-head cybersecurity tournament.
Working in Red and Blue Teams, students apply their Python skills to solve coding challenges before competing in strategic cyber defence scenarios involving password security, phishing attacks and incident response. The result is a highly engaging classroom activity that encourages teamwork, critical thinking and problem solving under time-pressure.
🤖 Capture the Flag with AI and Robotics
Our Capture the Flag with AI and Robotics course has undergone a major refurbishment. At the heart of the new experience is Scout, a robot explorer whose adventures introduce students to sensors, decision-making and robotic control systems in an intuitive, visual way.
The course now features a stronger mission storyline, improved teacher guidance, clearer visual explanations of AI, rank promotions, and support for English, German, French, Spanish and Chinese, making it even more engaging and accessible for classrooms.
