LEGO kit
Posted: Mon May 05, 2014 5:46 pm
One way for Livecode to go, as far as Primary education is concerned, would be to develop a "LEGO KIT" front-end
that would allow end-users to drag-and-drop both pre-made objects and pre-made actions onto a "stage".
To get people talking / writing / frothing-at-the-mouth I have run up a very, very primitive mockup of what
I think would be one way for this to go.
Please take a long hard look at it; then tear it to pieces, tell me it's "OK, BUT", whatever;
but don't just shrug your shoulders and go away.
As an educator I feel that RunRev have "lost the plot" a bit as far as both Primary education is concerned
and as far as affording non-programmers a way of rapidly prototyping stuff to lever their expertise without
having to go through a learning curve that is both outwith their speciality and detracts from time they would
rather spend on their speciality.
I have explored this at length previously, and any one who wishes to read what I have written is more than
welcome to access that here: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/RRRThesis/files
