  • Abstract
    This paper presents efforts in the direction of teaching computer programming concepts to young students (kids in the range 8-15 years old). This work is both innovative and attractive for Romanian primary and secondary schools in the field of computer programming. The authors believe that involvement in this work field could prove beneficial for the national educational policy, and consequently, for turning the interest of young generations to STEM-oriented careers.
