I have been on scratch for 2 and a half years, and I love it! The users are welcoming, and the challenges are exiting. This is a really good way to learn simple coding. There is a huge LGBTQ+ and diverse community in Scratch, which is great! Overall, this website it great.

Scratch è fatto bene, è protetto, è per bambini, ma non è avvolte sicuro. Però è fatto bene perchè ti fa imparare come fare il coding.

It's all about learning kids LGBTQ+ and and that people around the world have different colours skins.

Scratch it's cool but it has strict rules and the thing called "Mass Reporting" that basically you report a user/comment/project and then reload the page and do it again, i'm not against LGTBQ but that appears on Featured Pojects (sometimes and Featured Projects are also chosen by the team) and kids visit this website so they are going too see those LGTBQ projects

Scratch by coding on their site is amazing but that's all.
Here's what they can do, 1. Better moderation: Scratch has a buggy moderation and infamous for it, I can report, reload the page or exit off a pop up, click report again, That my friends is called mass reporting. Now how Scratch's moderation works is if a project or a user gets this amount of reports they are gone. In other words the moderation is unfair. What they can APPROVE it, is by having a system where it makes a report limit only to 1 and have the team look at that 1 report. 2. the featured page:
We all know that according to users: Scratch usually features what they seem high quality to the team however in reality, It's the opposite that's why genetic platformers are everywhere in the featured page. Instead they can do a voting system like NewGrounds
does and put that voting page up to the front page.
3. Design: Some of the pages are from Scratch 2.0, it's not hard to explain what they can do, update the pages to Scratch 3.0. 4. Desktop apps: The team said they are "working" on a Linux version for these desktop apps, new and old. Turbowarp an mod for Scratch and complies projects to JavaScript worked on a Linux version already, it's on Linux's app store, Hello? There's is no saying of what they can approve,
Just that the team must be not slacking. That's all I have to say.

i like it alot

Simple-looking tool that can achieve quite a lot as shown by users like griffpatch(but not only). It is a stepping stone for the future generation of programmers.

The community and community guidelines tho. The guidelines are basically "Oh wow be nice and report bad people, everyone is welcome here". I used the site as a kid and I've noticed multiple flaws.
Number 1 - Political views
There are projects based on recent political events, even by the "Scratch team". If you go to, say ceebees' profile, the about me is full of "BLM, stop the hate" and others. This is what I call brainwashing. Younger me did put some of these but quickly realised what it was and never did again.

Number 2 - Trending and Featured projects
The way that trending projects are selected has always confused me. You either see just one useful project or a combination of *not good* clicker games, art dumps or outright identical remixes(more on that later) of good projects. The featured projects(along with studios which I don't even want to talk about) are almost always some piece of actual garbage. While yes I understand this site is made for kids, can you at least not encourage making EXTREMELY LOW-quality projects?

Number 3 - Remixing
Whenever there is a quality project or even worse - a featured project which is absolute garbage, there will always be "omg I remixed first". Almost every single remix I've seen is either a straight-up copy of the original project or a change in the thumbnail. Even worse is that the guidelines contain a whole point for remixing a project "Embrace remix culture". Remixes are not moderated or at least monitored and I have tried reporting them to no avail.

Number 4 - Discovering
The search function is not very functional and the only way to find a project that has actually achieved something new that isn't just a platformer, clicker etc is very hard. Many people who have created technically achieving projects just end up leaving the platform because people are not able to find their projects, discouraging them to continue bringing new techniques to the platform. The website is now stuck in the platformer clicker era for a few years now.

A good way to teach coding to 7-10-year-olds, just don't touch the sharing your project part. Nor almost all of the site except the editor. Also their desktop app also has issues with saving your project.

TERRIBLE WEBSITE
THE FEATURES DON'T WORK
COMPUTER IS SLOW (I have 16GB ram)
The mouse doesn't work properly
The paint editor is so bad.
If I click once, the website takes it as 2 clicks

Scratch.mit.edu is a very popular and awesome websites for teaching students to code, which is pretty safe and legit to use. However, the rules are strict and a lot of scratchers are blocked or banned. Please give them a chance so that they can be a nice scratch.

I love Scratch! It's such a fun website with so many cool features - teaching kids how to code, comments, studios, and most important: the community. Recently the community has been flooded with rude kids stealing projects, advertising for more likes, and bothering others. They're so fame-hungry, some of them report hard-worked projects and the projects are instantly unshared and put up for review if enough people report it. This method is horrible, and it caused lots of people to leave. This isn't directly the Scratch Team's fault, but I hope they make the system better.

Vom "Massachusetts Institute of Technology" (M.I.T.) ist die Programmiersprache SCRATCH für Kinder und Jugendliche entwickelt worden, die aber auch von jung gebliebenen Erwachsenen benutzt wird. Maßgeblich waren damals Mitchel Resnick, Professor für Lernforschung am M.I.T. Media Lab., und sein Team daran beteiligt, diese visuelle Programmiersprache im Jahre 2007 herauszugeben. SCRATCH gibt es mittlerweile in der Version 3.

Mit SCRATCH ist es möglich, die Welt des Programmierens kennenzulernen, ohne im herkömmlichen Sinne einen Quellcode zu schreiben. Stattdessen arbeitet man mit diversen Bausteinen (Elementen) und Akteuren (Objekten), die auf einer Bühne agieren und miteinander kommunizieren. Hierzu verwendet man einen Programmier- Baukasten mit speziellen farbig gekennzeichneten Werkzeugen. Damit wird man jetzt kreativ und steuert multimedial die Akteure, z.B. mit Bewegungen, Zoomeffekten, Sprechblasen und Tönen. So lernt man recht unterhaltsam die grundlegenden Elemente des Programmierens kennen, wozu z.B. der sequenzielle Programmablauf gehört, aber ebenso der Einsatz von Kontrollstrukturen. Manchmal kommt es mir wie eine große Entdeckungsreise vor, die für manchen Jugendlichen bestimmt der Einstieg ins Programmieren wird.

SCRATCH ist kostenlos auf der Website des M.I.T. erhältlich, wird vor allem im Bildungssektor eingesetzt und ist mittlerweile weltweit verbreitet. Es gibt verschiedene Plattformen, auf denen die Entwicklungsumgebung (IDE) von SCRATCH benutzt werden kann, z.B. Windows, iOS und Android. Es ist aber auch möglich, nur online zu programmieren.

Die Vernetzung findet in einer Scratch-Community statt, in der man mit seinem Konto als SCRATCHER aktiv werden, seine Kreationen zeigen und austauschen kann. Da das spielerische Element beim Programmieren und die gegenseitige Unterstützung im Vordergrund stehen, ist mit SCRATCH sehr viel Freude und Lust an der eigenen Weiterentwicklung verbunden. Das kann ich jedenfalls auch aus der Sicht eines Erwachsenen sagen.

SCRATCH ist eine wunderbare Programmiersprache, bei der es auch eine Schnittstelle zur Programmierung mit der Schildkröte (Turtle) gibt, dazumal als LOGO unterwegs. Man kann mit SCRATCH eben auch tolle Turtle-Grafiken zeichnen. Stimmt, hier ist es nun die Katze, die lustig miaut.

great app for teaching children how to learn

I was on Scratch for 4 years and I had so many precious memories made there! The vast majority of the community is absolutely lovely and supportive, it's fun for children to code and make friends at the same time ^^

The only negative thing I can think of is that some people (very, very few) report others for fun, when there is no reason to, and I have unluckily experienced this 4 times.

It took me at least a few days each time to appeal to MIT as to why I hadn't gone against the guidelines, which, admittedly, was a bit frustrating at times.

Although I completely respect that MIT probably can't keep up with all of the different things going on though :)

This is a coding learning website. You or your children can learn to code. there are many people that can teach you. I like Griffpatch on YouTube. You can code, plaything you made, plaything other people made, join studio (something like group), etc.
