Vex Easy C Demo

Check out Carnegie Mellon's Robotics Academy site http://www.rec.ri.cmu.edu/education/index.html for a preview of their VEX curriculum. The presentation format is similar to the EDUbot CD we got 2 years ago.
Click on the Square Bot and then click the light sensor programming link. The EasyC program looks pretty slick. I have taught basic programming classes in high school and EasyC really enforces good programming techniques pretty seamlessly. It emphasizes comments, which most student written programs lack.
I highly recommend the Preview the Vex Curriculum Interface. Some links are broken, but the Programming section has lots of examples using the new sensors. It seems like Vex will live up to its hype. So far I am pretty impressed.
