good memories :-) I started programing with google apps script.

I think it's a great starting point for students because it's totally free, abstracts over the coplications of oauth (for small things I still prefer it because it's so effortless) and you can combine google apps in fun ways. Considering many students live out of gmail + google docs, it's great

And having a GUI version of the app makes interacting with other students easy bc they can always edit the google sheet (aka database), forms, gmail, etc
