Scratch (5 week sessions)

$55.00

The 5-week sessions are intended for students who aren’t sure they want to take the full Scratch 1/2 credit class, or who want to break it up over a period of time. These sessions are also self-paced so students who don’t want deadlines should choose these over the full semester class.

Description

Scratch was developed by MIT as an easy-to-learn programming language for children and teens. It uses a drag and drop interface so they don’t have to remember programming commands and syntax. Scratch is available in an online programming environment and runs on Macs and PCs. It is free to use. Apart from the course fee, there are no further costs involved in this course. Students will spend 1-2 hours each week on this course.

How does the class work?

Each week students will watch 3 videos that require them to practice as they learn. They will also have to complete a programming assignment -usually a game. If students need additional assistance it will be provided via email or video conference call.

This is a completely self-paced programming class. Start when you want to and take as long as you want.

We also offer a full semester class which comprises the Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced classes plus a final assignment. The full-semester class is not self-paced and has weekly deadlines. The assignments are the same whether they are done in the 5-week classes or the full semester.

Taking all 3 classes constitutes a 1/2 credit in programming for high school (as does the full semester class).
