[Yr7-10it] Coding child's play is now child's play!

[Melissa Yuan]

Hi Roland,

It would be hard to speculate on interest (hi everyone!) but certainly a showcase looking at the myriad of super fun hardware and software solutions, available teaching materials and/or student work in gaming would be a hoot. A small expo perhaps? Mix of vendors, teacher talk and students.

Cheers, Mel

Say Melissa, I was thinking of suggesting that we run run a retro-gaming showcase at ACCE2020 (Digicon by DLTV) following the fun that Matt and I had at PAX. https://dltv.vic.edu.au/ACCE2020

Do you reckon that there would be the coding interest or curiosity for this?

Regards Roland
