Meerbaum-Salant, Orni; Armoni, Michal; Ben-Ari, Mordechai – Computer Science Education, 2013
Scratch is a visual programming environment that is widely used by young people. We investigated if Scratch can be used to teach concepts of computer science (CS). We developed learning materials for middle-school students that were designed according to the constructionist philosophy of Scratch and evaluated them in a few schools during two…
