Course overview

SCRATCH is a programming language that makes it easy to create interactive stories, animations, games, music, and art that can then easily be shared on the web. Scratch is designed specifically for young people (ages 8 and up) to help them develop 21st century learning skills: thinking creatively, communicating clearly, analyzing systematically, using technologies fluently, collaborating effectively, designing iteratively, and learning continuously. As students create Scratch projects, they learn important mathematical and computational ideas, while also gaining a deeper understanding of the process of design

What will i learn?

Foundational Programming Skills: By completing the course, you will gain a solid understanding of fundamental programming concepts such as sequencing, loops, conditionals, and variables. These skills serve as a strong foundation for further exploration in the field of computer programming.
Proficiency in Scratch 3.0: You will become proficient in using Scratch 3.0 as a programming language and development environment. You will learn how to navigate the interface, create and customize sprites, use different blocks, and add interactivity to your projects.
Creativity and Project Development: Scratch 3.0 empowers you to unleash your creativity and turn your ideas into interactive projects. You will learn how to design and develop games, stories, animations, and other interactive applications using Scratch's visual programming blocks.
Problem-Solving and Logical Thinking: Programming inherently involves problem-solving and logical thinking. Through the course, you will enhance your ability to break down complex problems into smaller, manageable tasks and develop logical solutions using Scratch 3.0.
Pathway to Advanced Programming: Completing a Scratch 3.0 course can serve as a stepping stone toward advanced programming languages and concepts. The skills and concepts you learn in Scratch can be transferrable to other programming languages, making it easier to transition and explore more complex programming domains.
