In the mean time, if anyone is interested, I have set up a series of general java programming lessons through video game programming. I am trying to teach programming this way because not all of our programmers have access to a robot in their bedrooms, and all the lessons you learn through programming video games (e.g. critical thinking and debugging) are very applicable to the FRC programming we will be doing in 6 months.

Feel free to check out the website:

I recorded a getting started video to introduce the system to the bacon programmers. If you have students that want to start programming in the 2012 season, but don't know where to start, we would be glad to give them a helping hand!

Welcome and getting started video:

Thanks for putting up the correct info Skyler!
