Notes about Scratch: We had several questions about the version of Scratch which will be used during the iCompute event. Please see the notes listed below.
- iMacs with Scratch 3.29 will be used for the iCompute event.
- As per the tech team of AAPS: ‘All student Chromebooks have Scratch 3.0.65. The Chromebook needs to be logged into with the elementary school students account only. They should see the orange logo on the doc. If they do not see the app the device may need to be power washed. Click here for power wash directions.
- For any access issues, please contact the AAPS tech team.
