Considerable variety exists in the small microprocessor kits targeted towards the “educational” market.  Examples of each genre will be shown.  There appears to be some consolidation around the Arduino IDE (Interactive Development Environment) with it supporting several programming language and several microprocessor families in addition to its original AVR and C++ targets.
