We have noticed that the EV3 motor blocks to turn each direction ("this way" and "that way") look very similar to each other, which can be confusing:

We should consider using icons, as in the "turn" blocks:

We considered doing this initially, but we do not (as far as I know) have a way to add icons to blocks in this way.

We were also concerned that it could be confusing to use icons that specifically show clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation, because the motors may not actually turn that way. I think the benefit of making the blocks more visibly different is more important.
