My Take
I love Kodu in the classroom! I do hope it becomes cross platform or web based. Students take what you introduce and expand on it. Don't be too telling in your instruction. Let them discover!
How I Use It
Students are introduced to Kodu during a whole class lesson. I used the lessons found here, after demonstrating the platform. https://www.kodugamelab.com/resources/ Students love using Kodu. I did find that the 5 week lesson is actually less than that, but that students continue to build on their learning. I wish it was cross platform. Set up time is based on install time in a full lab.

The lesson plans provided are very helpful for beginners on this program, and it allows room for creativity.
