Scratch is a new programming language that makes it easy to create your own interactive stories, animations, games, music, and art -- and share your creations on the web. Scratch is designed to help young people (ages 8 and up) develop 21st century learning skills. As they create Scratch projects, young people learn important mathematical and computational ideas, while also gaining a deeper understanding of the process of design. -

In the past, many computer journalists have tried to explain advanced concepts such as object-oriented programming by comparing the activity to building applications by connecting smaller components in the same way a child assembles LEGO bricks. While early object-oriented programming environments such as Smalltalk were originally intended for children, the reality of programming never quite lived up to the simplicity of the LEGO model. That has all changed now with Scratch, a project developed by Mitchel Resnick and his associates at MIT's Lifelong Kindergarten research group. -

It is like a multimedia sandbox, where children 8 and up are welcomed as media producers, following the same philosophical blueprint that inspired software projects like Logo and Squeak. -
