Introduce computing and Computer Science to a younger audience using the Scratch programming environment.
Interested in learning how to program your computer? Interested in Computer Science? Interested in the connections between computing, Computer Science, and Mathematics? Or maybe you just want to create some computer games? If so, this course is designed for you. Using the Scratch programming environment, we show you how to start building interesting programs in just 15 minutes. And if you give us a few hours, we'll teach you the general skills and principles you need to be successful in just about every major programming language. Scratch makes programming fun and intuitive, yet is extensible and powerful enough to support general computation. Learn Scratch, and you'll learn much more than just creating games!
