a longitudinal dataset of five years of public activity in the scratch Online Community
arXiv: Computers and Society, 2017Co-Authors: Benjamin Mako Hill, Andres MonroyhernandezAbstract:Scratch is a programming environment and an Online Community where young people can create, share, learn, and communicate. In collaboration with the Scratch Team at MIT, we created a longitudinal dataset of public activity in the Scratch Online Community during its first five years (2007-2012). The dataset comprises 32 tables with information on more than 1 million Scratch users, nearly 2 million Scratch projects, more than 10 million comments, more than 30 million visits to Scratch projects, and more. To help researchers understand this dataset, and to establish the validity of the data, we also include the source code of every version of the software that operated the website, as well as the software used to generate this dataset. We believe this is the largest and most comprehensive downloadable dataset of youth programming artifacts and communication.

making projects making friends Online Community as catalyst for interactive media creation
New Directions for Youth Development, 2010Co-Authors: Karen Brennan, Andres Monroyhernandez, Mitchel ResnickAbstract:To become full and active participants in today's technologically saturated society, young people need to become creators (and not just consumers) of interactive media. Developing the requisite abilities and capacities is not a wholly individual process; it is important for young people to have access to communities where they can collaborate and share ideas. This article uses the Scratch Online Community for exploring how different forms of participation and collaboration can support and shape the ways in which young people develop as creators of interactive media. We describe participation in this Community in terms of a spectrum ranging from socializing to creating and present examples of three forms of collaboration within the Community. We argue that the most exciting interactive media creation and valuable learning experiences are taking place in the middle space, where participants draw on the best of socializing and creating practices.
