[Year 12 SofDev] Sand pit environment to teacher programming at Years 9 and 10

[Kent Beveridge]

Codecademy.com<http://codecademy.com> is absolutely worth using. Mine did for JAVA, Python languages. Students will need to register and set up accounts on the site.

Hi all


Any advice/experience using online environments to teach computer science and programming at year 9/10 level. I have used and like Code.org<http://code.org> and App Labs but would also like environments that force students to write line code. It also has to be comfortable for teachers new to teaching coding to use and be free.

CodeHS seems good but haven't used it yet.
DASH for HTML was great.






Cheers
