How can you ask about improving on the above checklist?  ;-) ;-)

I have suggestions for only two criteria:

* Availability of online documentation in a language that can be understood
by the students, so that interested students can explore beyond what is
shown in the classroom.
* Think of the extreme **stereotypical** boy and girl: can the programming
environment (and chosen activities!) cater to both of these extremes.

Please, share back what your group decides upon!
