Programming in plain EnglishThis is the 'lite' version of Insight iCON for introducing computer programming to younger pupils. Based on the natural language programming method popular in Junior Control Insight, it emphasises the solution of problems in real-life contexts without using complex coding syntax. It presents simulations of real-world machines controlled by programmable systems. The programs are expressed as natural English instructions defined by key phrases in the unique Insight Problem Solving Language.
