> kids could explore "real" software such as (just listing some of my favorites), Scratch, iPython Notebook, Arduino, etc. Go to any UK school and you'll see this happening as part of the CS Curriculum. It's probably less relevant to an English Lit lesson on To Kill A Mockingbird. Some software that provides large banks of questions for students to work through (particularly in Maths) is actually extremely useful. Not for instruction, but for assessment. It is an automation, but it saves the teacher a huge amount of time in marking and analysing results to identify areas of strength and weakness within a class and further inform teaching.
