1. Scratch was developed by the MIT Media Lab in 2007.

2. Scratch is a visual programming language, which means that users
create programs by dragging and dropping blocks of code instead of
typing out text-based code.

choose from, or they can create their own.

triggered by specific events, such as clicking on a sprite or pressing a
key.
