Scratch is a visual programming language developed by MIT Media Lab where kids can easily create and share their interactive stories, animation or simple games. Using simple drag-and-drop programming, students can control their actions and interaction. In the process, they are subtly exposed to basic programming concepts. Students will create a memorable game project. This is the class to stretch the imagination of a budding programmer.
