How you found out about Scratch

Share your stories about how you found Scratch.

I found Scratch when I took a computer programming class at UW.

Discuss.

Re: How you found out about Scratch

My friend Greg got it, and told me of it. Its weird because he doesn't really even use it anymore, and was certainly never on the site.

Re: How you found out about Scratch

It was an option for our gifted class to do for a project back in 5th grade. I did something else, but joined once I saw my friend's project.

Re: How you found out about Scratch

In 5th grade, we were choosing what schools to go to next year. To help with our decisions, the school sent us on field trips to the schools. One of them was a tech school and used Scratch, which looked really fun. The  other was your normal magnet school.
I go to the normal magnet school, but the tech school inspired me to use scratch.

Re: How you found out about Scratch

We did a unit on Scratch in computer class at school.
I must say that I was a noob back then who made REALLY stupid errors and not being able to fix them, so it wasn't exactly love at first sight.

And then I came back to scratch, grew out of being a noob, and here I am.

This is a temporary signature. It will exist until I think of something witty.

Re: How you found out about Scratch

In 2007, little 9 year old me was trying to learn a programming language. I googled around a lot, and found Scratch after a few days. I signed up, and started making horrible projects. Scratch changed over the years, the warriors fad came in, me and a few others got banned. Now, I just browse the forums.

I think it was on 1.0 or something like that.

Re: How you found out about Scratch

A robotics class. I asked was Scratch was, and asked my parents if I could download. That was shortly before 1.4.

I still remember that day clearly.  big_smile

Please call me udg or bearsfan, not undefeated.

Re: How you found out about Scratch

On google when searching 'make games online'


That was before I knew what a programming language was, or what the heck a forum was.


Quite a few accounts before this one, FYI.
