    Scratch y necesidades educativas especiales: programación para todos
    (Universidad de Murcia, Servicio de Publicaciones, 2012) Lopez Escribano, Carmen; Sánchez-Montoya, Rafael
    The main aim of this paper is to encourage teachers and educators to use Scratch in their classrooms with special education students. Scratch is a visual, easy to use, and free programming language which promotes active and constructive learning. To encourage teachers to use this program we offer other teachers' experiences with different abilities and learning style students and a list of assistive technology resources to make Scratch accessible to all. We also suggest other ways to use this program, as to make projects for learning disabilities rehabilitation. The experiences of using Sratch with special education students, presented below, are all positive and encouraging.
