A 3-year design-based research project in England, ScratchMaths, has developed a set of curriculum materials for the last two years of primary school. These materials use the Scratch programming language to blend computational and mathematical thinking. In this workshop you will have the opportunity to explore some of the curriculum activities as a means to discuss the potential impacts of the underlying pedagogy and curriculum content on pupils' classroom experiences in other countries' contexts.
