In this episode, we’re talking to Jens Moenig. He is the co-founder and Lead Programmer of Snap! - a free, visual and educational programming language. Snap! is based on the blocks-based concepts of Scratch, but includes some extensions that make it suitable for a serious introduction to computer science. For example, it has been used to teach "The Beauty and Joy of Computing" - an introductory course in computer science at the University of California in Berkeley. To get started, just visit snap.berkeley.edu. Here you’ll find the web-based editor, the forums and the community pages where others share their projects.
