thank you, but defintively no way when you are >= 60 (and the only programming language you know is Livecode)!

Klaus, Could you teach LiveCode as First Computer Language in the city where you live?
Does exists a Makerspace in Osnabrück? Or a Hackerspace?
https://wurmloch.de/

Look at this information from this webpage:
http://researchguides.dartmouth.edu/makerspaces

Brief History of Makerspaces
2005: The makerspace movement starts in Germany with three locations.
They provide a membership-based facility with a wide variety of tools, materials,
and training from staff and other community members.
2014: Approximately 1500 Makerspaces worldwide.

I will teach Livecode (with exercises and examples from classic videogames)
in Computer Centers from the city where I live.
These will be small classes (5 or less) with online support
for most activities.

If these classes are successful, then I will complete the translation
of LiveCode Docs and IDE to spanish and ask these same student
to try it. Wish me good luck

Hola Alejandro,

good luck!
And thank you for the links.

Thanks a lot, Klaus!

You have no idea how many times I have changed and/or reduced
the content of this course.

If I show the guidelines to Computer Lab Teachers, they say:
Too complex for them. Reduce or delete this and that...

If I show these guidelines to Adult Gamers, they say:
Too simple, include these, this and that...

My solution is to use internet for complete explanations
and classroom for presenting student's exercises and
answer questions that they do not ask online.

This style of teaching is known as "Flipped Classroom"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flipped_classroom

Could you try this experimental class in your own city?
In my own case, any help is welcome too.
