Programming is a very tough and intimidating for beginners. I begin my Programming 1 class with block code to help the students learn the basics of code structure and Algorithms. The block code in nice to teach beginners because it is a lot "friendlier" than actually coding from day one. Who wouldn't like making a robot perform tasks you tell it to do? I like to use websites like Code.org or MIT's Scratch to introduce block code. However, I have found out about Sphero SPRK's and feel these would offer a more real, more hands on approach to teaching code.
