[Trainer-Talk] Accessible, gamified coding platforms

[Jeremiah Beasley]

Hello,

I would recommend looking at Quorum.  It is made to be accessible and they
have a great game engine.  You can create websites with it as well.  All
lessons are online and free.  Check it out at  https://quorumlanguage.com/.

Hope this helps!
