Teaching basic programming principles such as variables, selection structures, repetition structures, and event handling.

Scratch is a visual programming language developed at MIT, in order to make it easier to create animations, develop games and other interactive work type projects.

Through a series of activities and games based on creative thinking, students learn how to apply their mathematical skills and use programming code. At the end of the course, students develop their own video game which will then share with their CTY Greece Online instructor and classmates.

Prior programming knowledge and skills are not required, though students should be familiar with using an internet browser, and need to have basic computer skills (e.g. cut & past, email attachments, etc.). No book or software purchase is required.
