LMAO training to be an architect on BL? People can't build stuff with legos. They'll have to go through the process of learning about what constitutes 'spam,' how to use events, sprays, etc. Even then how are you going to structure your lessons? 'build a pretty hose plz' 'no, use a baseplate' 'basepla- I give up' (You're also wasting your parent's money with this stuff when you could be playing BL at home, btw lol) |

Why the hell would you use a kiddy lego game as a serious or budding architect? You wouldn't. I dunno about architecture, but if you ever take a secondary school design course (furniture and basic spatial design) you'll quickly learn why something like Blockland would be inappropriate. Events may be good for increasing logical thinking and perhaps a kiddies introduction to understanding programming, but ultimately, its entirely useless outside of Blockland. There is absolutely no room for Blockland in education. --- End quote --- This man speaks the truth. Honestly, using Blockland for education is a very bad idea. Everything that would have some educational value could be taught much easier with other tools. - Eventing as a programming substitute? Learn a real language instead. Eventing is useless. - Using bricks to teach architecture? Use real Lego's instead. Then you'll get the physics aspect as well. |

how i saw it is by using Blockland as a C.A.D tool (computer aided design) and the eventing to prove how it would work e.i light sequences |

While TorqueScript is a horrible language for serious development, Blockland seems like it would be a very good way to introduce people to programming whom know nothing beforehand. .. as long as you can forget everything about TorqueScript when you're finished |
