Arduino programming inherits from Processing model also. One of the more effective subcultures I'm aware of, vis-a-vis Learning to Code, is spearheaded by Dan Shiffman of Coding Train fame, a ProcessingJS guru: http://worldgame.blogspot.com/2018/03/youtube-teachers.html (links to Dan's Youtube channel) Glad to see Unplugged activities getting plugged (advertised).
