The Lazarus IDE short circuits most of these problems and can quickly build some very "real" feeling apps that can solve real problems for people just learning to code.
It is object pascal (with the attendant quirks) but it seems to be code-ish enough that people can transfer on to more modern languages without too much fuss.

This includes people who have not yet learned what programming is and have never written a line of code in their lives. http://www.contrapositivediary.com/?p=4034 http://www.contrapositivediary.com/?p=4034
