Nice k12online conference presentation about Scratch<br><br><blockquote>Scratch is a simple yet powerful programming language for children that
is very easy to use yet contains many of the important programming
constructs found in more “grown up” languages.
This presentation looks at some of the key ideas behind programming in
Scratch, explores some possible tasks that students could be given to
encourage problem solving and higher level thinking, and finishes with a
snapshot of a student view into how Scratch is making a difference to
learning.<br></blockquote><a href="http://k12onlineconference.org/?p=650" target="_blank">http://k12onlineconference.org/?p=650</a><br clear="all"><font color="#888888"><br>-- <br>Roland Gesthuizen - ICT Coordinator - Westall Secondary College<br>
