Greenfoot

We've been exploring Greenfoot, a new development environment for teaching programming in Java since December. We plan to use it in Pixels Programming & Play, the videogame development camp for high school freshman and sophomores which we are running this summer. We piloted the camp with a different teaching tool last summer, with generous support from the University of Denver's School of Art & Art History and the Colorado Council on the Arts. Pixels Programming & Play is now supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation and the continuing support of the DU School of Art & Art History and the Victoria Myhren Gallery.
