FROM SCRATCH DAY TO SCRATCH EVERY DAY
Outline
● The context.● First steps.● Our model: Scratch Eguna, Scratch Day in the
Basque Country.● The event.● From Scratch Day to Scratch everyday.
The context
Eskola 2.0The 1-to-1 project in the Basque Country
http://www.eskola20.euskadi.net/
No programming tools in primary schoolsIs important to go beyond the use of the computers for the traditional curriculum

First steps
FLL Euskadi 2010, a coach wondered...Could we do something for children who are too young to participate in FLL?
http://www.flleuskadi.com/
The obvious answer: Scratch DayA good opportunity to meet some people who like to promote new ways for learning
http://day.scratch.mit.edu/
Let's start working on it!(The guy who did the question, Josu Garro)

We wanted something differentNot a competition model with prices, best teams and challenges

Our model
Our goal: Promote the use of programming tools as educational tools

Our goal: Organize a science faire of young Scratch programmers

Themes, not challenges
(see Rusk, Resnick, Berg, & Pezalla-Granlund, 2008)
Combine Art and Engineering
(see Rusk, Resnick, Berg, & Pezalla-Granlund, 2008)
Encourage storytelling
(see Rusk, Resnick, Berg, & Pezalla-Granlund, 2008)
Organize exhibitions(Rather than competitions)
(see Rusk, Resnick, Berg, & Pezalla-Granlund, 2008)

From Scratch Day to Scratch everyday
Encouraging self-learning
