Scratch

Using the coding program Scratch, students have learned how to code through various projects.

A video game created by a student using Scratch.

A student created a program in Scratch to use for DJ’ing. Each button has a different sound assigned to it.

Students created unique musical patterns and sounds using Scratch with the Makey Makey extension. To play aloud each musical pattern and sound, they made capacitive touch buttons and switches to be connected to the Makey Makey, which is connected to a laptop running the code they made. Each button or switch triggers a different musical pattern or sound. They used various conductive materials to create the buttons and switches, such as copper tape, aluminum foil, graphite, paper clips and wire.
