To transition from visual programming to more traditional programming students can render their games into Java source code.
AgentSheets is supported by a middle and high school curriculum called Scalabable Game Design aligned with the ISTE National Educational Technology Standards (NETS). The mission of this project is to reinvent computer science in public schools by motivating & educating all students including women and underrepresented communities to learn...
