I was planning to extend Hour of Code for the last 2 weeks before Winter/Christmas break. While we are lucky to have in-person classes, I am not able to see every class, every week. This year was different (as all things in 2020). I’ve been making my school participate in Hour of Code since 2014 (it’s 2nd year in existence). Scratchers could participate by creating a We Bare Bears project and submitting it to the studio.Last week, December 7-11, was #HourofCode week. The Scratch Hour of Code featured the Cartoon Network TV show We Bare Bears. Cartoon Network and the Scratch Team teamed up in the 2015 Hour of Code. On October 10, 2015, Scratch added participation to Hora do Codigo Brasi (Brazilian Hour of Code) by creating a studio called Rio 2016 and encouraging users to create projects about the upcoming Rio 2016 Olympic Games.Ī little while after that Scratch Celebrated the Europe Code Week and people could remix and create their own project that had people ( sprites) dancing in a Europe scene and post a link to their project in the Ode to Code Dance - Europe Code Week studio.Ĭartoon Network is a TV channel that airs animated TV shows aimed at children such as Adventure Time, The Amazing World of Gumball, Steven Universe, and Teen Titans Go. Even on the forums, spambots are common and the 120 Second Rule was extended to 600 seconds. Due to the influx of traffic, the Scratch Team creates an announcement warning of possible server slowness or other hiccups. In the past couple of years, it has increased the number of Scratchers registered. Hour of Code usually occurs starting on the second Tuesday of December and ends on the third Tuesday of the month. The Hour of Code studios are managed and owned by the Scratch Team. Scratchers could participate by creating a We Bare Bears project and submitting it to the studio.

Those include: Animate Your Name, Hide and Seek, and Dance, Dance, Dance. Once a project is made, it can be added to the appropriate Hour of Code studio. They are: "Animate Your Name", "Hide and Seek", and "Dance, Dance, Dance". Hour of Code on Scratch consists of three activities, with tutorials being in the Scratch Editor.

A petition on their website finds that almost 2 million people state that they believe "Every student in every school should have to learn computer science." Participation Almost 22 billion lines of code have been written during Hour of Code, and over 735 million people have been introduced to programming. The Hour of Code has changed the school curriculum in over 30 US districts, and has also changed policies in over 16 US states. The goals of the Hour of Code are to inspire students, create Computer Science classes, prepare teachers for teaching Computer Science, etc. This is done by hosting hour-long activities which are supposedly engaging and/or educational. The Hour of Code is designed to introduce people to coding, as well as get them familiarized with coding.
