&quot;With Etoys, a K-8 student could do something like illustrate a story and then use scripts to move those illustrations. More sophisticated students could use it to demonstrate science concepts (imagine asking a kid to program an environment with real gravity) and complete virtual projects. All the while, the students are learning a sophisticated but approachable programming language and engaging their own creative minds.&quot;<br>
