Intro 3 ways: an introduction to three environments for teaching introductory programming
Adrienne Decker, Frances P. Trees · 2013
In the past few years, many new and interesting environments have grown in popularity for introducing programming concepts to students at the university, secondary, and even the middle school level. This workshop will provide an introduction to three such environments: Scratch, Greenfoot, and Processing. During the workshop the participants will be exposed to basic features of the environment through some simple hands-on exercises. Resources (online communities, websites, and additional workshop examples) will be provided for those interested in further exploration of the environments. Laptops strongly recommended for hands-on exercises.
