Why do we need a programming language for kids?

“...it is possible to design computers so that learning to communicate with them can be a natural process, more like learning French by living in France than trying to learn it through the unnatural process of American foreign-language instruction in classrooms.”

- Seymour Papert

I like Scratch better than blogs or social networking sites like Facebook because we’re

creating interesting games and projects that are fun to play, watch, and download. I don’t

like to just talk to other people online, I like to talk about something creative and new.

I love Scratch. Wait, let me rephrase that – Scratch is my life. I have made many projects. Now I have what I call a “Programmer's mind.” That is where I

think about how anything is programmed. This has gone from toasters, car electrical systems, and

soooo much more.

Remixing = forking

What about collaborative refinement?
