Seymour Papret was a big influence of Alan Kay and Brett Victor who are also folks that I admire. So anyways thanks for letting me go on a little rant. No that's great I had not heard about this Seymour Papret song and then certainly look into him. But back to your question of like how do you teach or like how would I think about teaching kids the code. So I started with scratch which is the successor to logo it's a language out of MIT. It's fairly popular these days is block based so it really is programming but you can't make a syntax error.
In this supper club episode of Syntax, Wes and Scott talk with Steve Krouse about val.town, what it is, his philosophies on teaching people to code, the tech stack for val.town, and the benefits of inspiring kids to learn to code.
