Students improved their Scratch skills. They incorporated the use of variables, conditional statement, and loops into their games, and they were able to customize various elements of their designs by using drawing tools to make their own sprites and backgrounds. Students worked at their own pace. Older students had pursued more difficult challenges in the design of their game, and had additional time for customizations.
