Welcome to the distribution center for BYOB (Build Your Own Blocks), an advanced offshoot of Scratch, a visual programming language primarily for kids from the Lifelong Kindergarten Group at the MIT Media Lab. This version, developed by Jens Mönig with design input and documentation from Brian Harvey, is an attempt to extend the brilliant accessibility of Scratch to somewhat older users—in particular, non-CS-major computer science students—without becoming inaccessible to its original audience. BYOB 3 adds first class lists and procedures to BYOB's original contribution of custom blocks and recursion.

... rethinking mathematics learning and teaching with new technologies ... The International Journal of Computers for Mathematical Learning publishes contributions that explore the unique potential of new technologies for deepening our understanding of the field of mathematics learning and teaching. As a result, the journal is redefining the field, increasing its connections with physics, biology, economics, engineering, computer science, psychology, art, anthropology and philosophy. Moreover, the journal re-examines how the field is used, understood, and expressed. Contributions include theoretical, empirical, practical and visionary studies. Published papers are not solely concerned with computers, and the mathematics discussed is not limited by the current boundaries of the discipline nor by current conceptions of curriculum. In addition to full-length, scholarly papers, the journal publishes short notes, in-depth reviews of software and books, and a forum for the discussion of controversial issues.
