ABOUT

Glitch is a one week computer programming workshop, teaching creative coding at the elementary school level using Scratch, a free educational product from the MIT Media Lab.

This website presents the lessons and student works created during the Spring 2016 Glitch event held at the Mt. Vernon Public Library, March 21-25, 2016. The Glitch event was attended by 14 students between the ages of 6 and 11 years old.

 

Glitch is education as art form following Tania Bruguera's criteria for Arte Útil. Joseph Beuys' art as social-sculpture is applied by teaching computer programming as the manifestation of a shared technological heritage. Edward Burger’s pedagogy of failure is extended into an aesthetic goal.
