After teaching an introductory course in computer programming with Java a few years ago, I am expecting that using Scratch will allow the concepts of computer coding to shine through without the annoyance of typing in the code in a text editor.  I think this edX course will be so much fun – and maybe I will be able to keep ahead of the Jackson-Via Computer Club kids this spring!

There is still time to sign up.

Programming in Scratch

See how easy learning computer science can be.  Use Scratch to create games, animations, stories and more.
