Interesting... I wonder how this compares to Alice as a possible (very) introductory teaching language for CS newbies in high school and college? Alice continues to get rave reviews, though (as with every language) there are critics. At first glace, Kodu seems to be too elementary to be a platform to use in a "programming for non-majors" CS class. We want a class that can be used as a way to open the eyes of students that never thought about CS as their major. Our plan was to adopt Alice for this purpose.
