Greenfoot is an interactive Java development environment designed primarily for educational purposes at the high school and undergraduate level. It allows easy development of two-dimensional graphical applications, such as simulations and interactive games. Greenfoot is being developed and maintained at the University of Kent, with support from Oracle. It is free software, released under the GPL license. Greenfoot is available for Windows, OS X, Linux, Solaris, and any recent JVM. ==History== The Greenfoot project was initiated by Michael Kölling in 2003, and a first prototype was built by Poul Henriksen (Master's student) and Michael Kölling (supervisor) in 2003/2004.〔(P. Henriksen Masters thesis: A Direct Interaction Tool for Object-Oriented Programming Education )〕 From 2005 development was continued involving the other members of the BlueJ Group at the University of Kent and Deakin University.〔(Greenfoot contributors )〕 The first full release, Greenfoot version 1.0, was published on 31 May 2006, with further releases following occasionally thereafter.〔(Version history )〕 In May 2007, the Greenfoot project was awarded the "Duke's Choice Award" in the category "Java Technology in Education", and in 2010 it won the "Premier Award for Excellence in Engineering Education Courseware". In March 2009, Greenfoot project became free and open source software, and licensed under GNU GPL with Classpath exception. In August 2009, a textbook〔(Textbook: Introduction to Programming with Greenfoot )〕 was published that teaches programming with Greenfoot. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Greenfoot」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
