Scratch Jr Tactile
Inclusive and tangible coding
An Open Source Project
Scratch Jr Tactile is an accessible, open-design educational resource that encourages the development of skills in computational thinking and transversal competencies, covering artistic, mathematical aspects and values of social equity. In addition, it provides students with visual impairments or other specific needs the opportunity to work on essential competencies for them.
More than a simple game or set of programming blocks, Scratch Jr Tactile is characterized by being tangible, inclusive and does not require screens. Inspired by Scratch Jr, it uses icons to facilitate the understanding of the programming language, thus eliminating communication barriers.
