GameStart Uses Minecraft to Teach Kids Programming (Video 2)

Posted by Roblimo on from the mine-bitcoins-instead-of-crafts-and-they'd-race-each-other-to-school dept.

As we said last week, "You can't teach all programming by using Minecraft to keep kids interested, but you can use Minecraft, Java, and Eclipse to give them a good start." That's what Tyler Kilgore and his colleagues at GameStart are doing. Watch today's video (number 2), go back to last week's video (number 1) if you missed it, and read both days' transcripts for the full scoop.
