Last Saturday at BETT, the educational technology conference, I spent most of the day demoing on the Microsoft stand. One of the things I was demoing was Kodu.
Kodu is a “Game Lab” in the sense that it is an application targeted at schools who want to get children started in development, programming, logic, games development, or computer skills, without needing to learn code syntax and write hundreds of lines.
Developed by Fuse, part of Microsoft Labs, Kodu is built on the XNA framework, and designed to give Key Stage 3-4 students a chance to become creative to build fun games that aid their learning.
