[Grace-core] processing.js

[Kim Bruce]

The following quote is relevant to the work on porting processing to Grace:

Perhaps the computer science will help in that regard. Many of Khan’s critics advocate theconstructivist school of education, which promotes experiential learning over lectures and drilling. Although Khan (and Gates) were somewhat dismissive of critics in the past, the tutorials useProcessing.js, which is based on the visual arts centric programming language Processing, but can run inside a modern web browser without the need for any plugins. Processing is part of a tradition of programming education that started with the programming language Logo, an educational programming language created in 1967 by constructivist educators.
