I gave a talk at !!con last weekend, about my favourite programming language scratch:
Back in 1971, Cynthia Solomon and Seymour Papert wrote “Twenty things to do with a computer”, about their experiences of teaching children to use Logo and their ideas for the future.
They were wrong: There’s a lot more than twenty. Logo’s successor, Scratch, has over thirteen million things that children and adults alike have built. Scratch is radically approachable in a way that puts every other language to shame.
This talk is about the history, present, and future of Scratch: why Scratch is about ‘coding to learn’, and not about ‘learning to code’.
I had a incredible time at !!con. The live captioning was fantastic (and they’re crowdfunding a game to teach steno too).
The livestreams are up (but no captions), and my talk is 3h29m32s in on day 2.
