It's good to see Minecraft mentioned--a friend of mine recently ran a two-day Saturday class on beginning programming in Python, using Minecraft on Raspberry pis.

Kids had a lot of fun making functions to do cool things in Minecraft. Gamedev is probably the most rewarding way to learn programming.

That's rad. Minecraft is such a great gateway for getting kids into programming, it's awesome to see educators taking advantage of that. Does your friend have their curriculum available anywhere? I'd love to take a look at how they ran it.

I'd also like to see the curriculum!
