Show Notes

Yes this episode is about Scratch, one of the most well known programming language for kids, but it is about so much more. Join us as we talk with Scratch founder, Mitch Resnick, about bringing creativity back to the classroom. We dive deep into his time with his mentor Seymour Papert and into his creative process with his team in the MIT Media Lab.  We cover his journey to where he is today, important things to remember when inspiring a child's imagination (on and off the screen), and the magic of being a lifelong kindergartner.  Enjoy!
