Tynker makes it fun and easy to learn computer programming. Get started today with Tynker's easy-to-learn, visual programming course designed for young learners in 4th through 8th grades.
Sense is a drag-and-drop programming environment that will allow you to develop rich multimedia programs within minutes. It has been designed to work with the SenseBoard, a powerful, flexible and yet amazingly simple-to-use hardware kit that can sit at the heart of a thousand different projects, giving you a few of the features of a research laboratory in something that fits in the palm of your hand. The possibilities are almost endless!
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.
