Joel,

I'd be interested to hear more about how CPyton is being used in schools.

thanks,

If you are teaching digital animation at the high school level,
here's a good site to check out if you are not familiar with it:

http://www.vpython.org

VPython is not very resource hungry (unless you try to push it too
hard); it combines the teaching of math and computer programming with
more general animation issues; and the programs that you write can
easily be adjusted to fit the speed of whatever hardware you are
running. I've already been in communication with some teachers who
have used it effectively in high school. The online discussion group
for the software is very knowledgeable.

Good luck.

Joel
