Its semi-finals now and we are down to the final 4!! It’s the ultimate validation phase for your data predictions. Load up the bracket builder one last time to simulate the exact path to the championship game! explore.stemcoding.org/soccer.html

We started with 48, and now only 8 data tracks remain. Did your initial bracket configuration predict this top 8 array? Head over to the predictor tool to see if your logic still holds up for the quarter-finals explore.stemcoding.org/soccer.html

Hello World Cup fans!! With the first 48 being cut down to 32, the stakes have become higher to manage your predictions so the STEMcoding team has took the liberty of making a bracket builder tool! You can access it here: explore.stemcoding.org/soccer.html

Make your selections! Our bracket builder will give you a QR code, and a binary code and a hex code that will record your choices. It's a great way to teach how the same information can be represented in different ways explore.stemcoding.org/soccer.html #iteachmath #CS4ALL #worldcup #edusky
