Scratch Day, a global event

May 20, 2022
On May 19, Scratch Day was celebrated with a series of activities designed to promote programming and computational thinking.

This event is organized by Ceibal Digital Laboratories and Universidad ORT Uruguay.

Scratch is a tool that helps you learn and take your first steps in the world of programming using a block-based programming environment.

Dr. Inés Kereki, a professor of programming at the school, led a workshop on this technology and used the example of the class’s student group choosing a platform to carry out the activity and create a program in an easy, fun, and practical way to randomly select students.
