Description
This podcast is a recorded conversation between Chris Simon and Wesley Fryer after day two of the Spring Break 2013 Scratch Camp at Skyview Elementary School in Yukon, Oklahoma. Scratch is a wonderful, FREE software program from MIT which allows students to create games, tell stories, create animations, and make many other kinds of interactive projects. Scratch is ideal for helping students develop computational thinking and problem solving skills, tied to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) skills. Chris and Wesley are co-facilitating a 5 day Scratch Camp over Spring Break for students in grades 2 through 6, sponsored by “The Div.” The Div is a local OKC non-profit based in Edmond, focused on empowering youth to gain digital literacy skills and learn about job opportunities in technology-related fields. Check out the podcast shownotes for links to the Oklahoma Scratch Camp curriculum, Scratch Club website, and other resources.
