extended version of Scratch called BYOB (Build Your Own Blocks). It's
available free thanks to Brian Harvey, see: http://byob.berkeley.edu/
Details on the new course itself are at:
http://inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/~cs10/fa10/
For BFOIT, a non-profit dedicated to increasing diversity in CS and
engineering, we use Scratch for students up through 8th grade, then
move on to a version of Logo, written in Java, which has some Java
features. The goal for this course is to get students ready for Java,
for APCS. Checkout: http://www.bfoit.org/itp/itp.html
