I am putting together a (likely very) small Scratch Day event at Florida International University. It hasn't yet been approved for inclusion on the Scratch Day Page, though.
This will be a very informal affair during which I introduce Scratch and explain where it came from, why, etc. Due to the nature of the audience, I plan to spend some time presenting Dr Resnick's research, introducing Alan Kay, Smalltalk, Squeak, and mentioning other, similar or similarly creative projects in computing. But it may just devolve into a playtime session with Scratch, which is just fine with me.
