CoCo Being. Creative. Together
Realtime Co-Creation
Build creative projects with peers in a shared digital space. View and interact with others’ projects in real-time.
Blocks / Text Co-Coding
Code together with peers in live block-based and text-based coding environments (built on top of Scratch 3.0 and p5.js).
Safe Private Corridors
Start a private digital corridor for your classroom or community. Create, explore, and remix spaces inside your corridor.
Collaborative Projects
Use new peer programming blocks to build collaborative stories, art, and games, or connect hardware devices across distance.
Co-Art and Co-Write
Make art together in CoCo Canvas or write together in CoCo Stories. Support for other expressive environments in future.
Live Remixing
Discover the magic of live remixing. Drag and drop code or assets from your friend’s project into your own in real-time.
Built-in Video and Audio
No separate video calling platform required. Create an endless variety of shared programmable video experiences with peers.
Self-less Social Platform
No individual profiles, no likes, no followers, no units of comparison. Just a peaceful place for — being. creative. together.
OctoStudio
With OctoStudio, young people can create interactive animations and games using a mobile phone or tablet anytime anywhere. Take photos and record sounds, bring them to life with coding blocks, and send to family and friends.
OctoStudio is developed by Lifelong Kindergarten, the MIT Media Lab group that created Scratch, the world’s most popular coding language for kids. OctoStudio is completely free of charge.
Scratch Lab
Scratch Lab is where the Scratch Team shares our experiments with new coding blocks. We’re constantly tinkering with Scratch to add new creative possibilities. Scratch Lab is our sandbox for everyone to try out these new ideas, and give us feedback. We invite you to play, and let us know what you think!
Tree Life Simulator
Tree management : The rate at which new trees grow depends on a number of factors, such as climate conditions, soil quality, disease, sunlight, and water. In this step, you’ll add a slider to demonstrate how managing these conditions can impact the number of trees in the area.
In the simulation, the tree management slider controls the speed that new trees grow. If you move the slider to the right, it speeds up the growth; if you move it to the left, it slows down the growth.
When the slider is at the right (5), the simulation waits one second to plant a tree, and when it is at the left (0) it waits six seconds to plant a tree.
You will add a set of blocks to make sure that the speed that new trees grow is in reaction to a change in the tree management slider.
