Tessa, AoIR, 


Thanks for this information about MIT's Scratch programming language. With 
respect to MIT's Scratch, AoIR researchers might be interested in Carnegie 
Mellon Universitiy's "Alice 3," another program to learn programming. Both 
of these are available on World University & School's free, educational 
software page: http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Educational_Software - 
which has much other interesting, free software as well. 


As a wiki, it's possible to add to World University & School's free 
software, as well as to TEACH a free and open course, for example.

to which we can all add.
