GiiLD Beginner Challenges

In the spirit of project-based learning, Challenges replace courses.  We have designed three new Challenges to inspire your kids to learn to program.  Don't worry, you don't have to know anything about programming - GiiLD will enable the learning process with your student-learners.  The three Challenges we are highlighting right now are:

  • PhotoStory - a personal story with pictures

  • PhotoStory to Image Gallery (a follow up to the first PhotoStory Challenge)

  • Draw pictures with Logo
