Code Academy Python and more

The recent Hour of Code activity was interesting.  Here a professional observes the activity in a Middle School classroom.  In the past I did professional programming. I also had to adapt some Python code relatively recently.    I have always been intrigued by what it takes to train or retrain people in the process of computer coding.  The example of the Python Code Academy is given as a structured method to be introduced to a new coding method.  Worth examining and pointing out to students.  Other coding languages are also covered, such as Javascript and Ruby.
