Educator Resources for Blockly: Maze
In Blockly: Maze, players are introduced to concepts behind simple computer programming with a graphical editing tool that uses blocks instead of typed characters. Players will learn to drag blocks together to build a simple web application. Running the app, students must instruct a character to move properly through a maze in order to reach a specified target. As they succeed in early levels, they will advance to more and more complicated tasks. Blockly: Maze is a wonderful tool to use as a primer for basic coding.
