MARS IT School methodology — the lesson standardA MARS IT School lesson lasts 60 minutes and has seven blocks: hook, recall, one new idea, practice, quiz, second practice and a show of results. Children work on their own for at least 80% of the time, and every lesson ends with a working result. AI is used only under the rule “explain every line”. Homework continues the lesson’s project and is checked before the next lesson.Every lesson ends with something to showEvery Mars branch teaches by this standard: how a lesson is built and what a child does in it.Lesson: 60 minutes. Ages 9–17. 10–15 children per group.Principles

Children do 80% of the lesson themselves. Explanation takes no more than a fifth of the time. If a plan has a longer lecture, the lesson goes back for rework.

A lesson ends with a working result. A website, game, character or bot: small but real. Once a month a child publishes a piece of work with a link to send to parents and friends. “We covered the topic” does not count as a result.

The child is the author, AI is a tool. One rule: explain every line the AI wrote. Skill means you understand it and can change it.

The lesson, minute by minuteA lesson runs 60 minutes. The order of blocks is the same in every branch; the mentor adjusts timing inside blocks to the group.

Hook (2–3 min): A live demo of the result, an unexpected question or a “broken” example. A lesson never opens with “today’s topic is…”.

Recall (4–5 min): 3–5 questions on past lessons. Children recall on their own, with no answer slides.

New idea (7–8 min): One idea per lesson. The mentor shows it live and says aloud what they do and why: “I’m writing this because…”

Practice I (18–22 min): A worked example, then one with gaps, then their own version. The mentor helps with a question, not a ready answer.

Quiz (3–5 min): 2–4 questions on typical misunderstandings. The answers tell the mentor whether to move on or unpack the mistake.

Practice II (13–17 min): Their own feature in the project: in a pair, or an AI step where every line must be explained. A harder task is ready for fast finishers.

Show (4–5 min): The work is shown to a neighbour or the group. Homework comes with completion criteria.

We never cut recall and the quiz, even when time is short: they are the cheapest and best-proven techniques.Courses · Contacts · Book a trial lessonPhone: +998 78 777 77 57
