What is Scratch?

Scratch is a graphical programming tool released by MIT's "lifelong Kindergarten team" in 2007, which is mainly open to young people around the world, and is the most well-known of the graphical programming tools, all of whom can create their own programs in software. It has been continuously updated, with the latest version being 3.0 as of early 2024. It is programmed by dragging and dropping building blocks, which can enable children or adult programming beginners to learn basic programming concepts. There are schools all over the world that use this software to teach classes and hold programming competitions. By learning Scratch, I can expand the depth of Chinese, mathematics and foreign language teaching.

What can you do with Scratch?

A quote from the website:

"With Scratch, you can write your own interactive media, like stories, games, animations, and then you can share your ideas with the world. Scratch helps young people be more creative, logical, and collaborative. These are essential skills to live in the 21st century." For parents: Scratch is a programming language and an online community where kids can interact with people around the world with interactive media such as stories, games, and animations. While learning Scratch, they also indirectly develop the ability to reason logically, think creatively, and work together.

For teachers: Students can use Scratch to write their own programs, such as interactive stories, animations and games. In the process, they learn to think creatively, analyze systematically, and work together to get things done, all basic skills needed in modern society.
