There are many innovative emerging teaching methods designed for computer science education. Unformately, many of these methods may face difficulty integrating with existing courses due to incompatibility with the courses assessments methods. Furthermore several of these teaching methods lack formal testing and comparison in a reed course setting. Kodr is a modular gamified learning platform, desigend to support varying challenge types, aiming to accommodate multiple teaching methods. It is web-based as well as off-line ready so as to eliminate software-related barriers of entry. It provides students with a gamified system for solving programming problems
