PT - JOURNAL ARTICLE AU - MUSÍLEK, Michal TI - PROJECT SCRATCH DP - 2013 Apr 1 TA - Journal of Technology and Information Education PG - 102--106 VI - 5 IP - 1 AID - 10.5507/jtie.2013.015 IS - 1803537X AB - The paper focuses on a children's programming language named SCRATCH and community project with the same name. It evaluates not only its unique strengths, but also indicates some reserves. The paper presents several examples which explain how to work with an integrated development environment and create the program composited from the prepared command blocks. This is similar to work with a quality building kit. The attention is aimed at work with graphic elements "sprites" and intuitive multi-threaded programming, in which individual scripts communicate with each other via messaging.
