As the founder of Creaticode, an innovative educational platform, I am committed to providing K-12 students with an engaging and accessible environment to learn coding through enjoyable projects. Building upon the open-source foundation of MIT’s Scratch project, Creaticode enriches the learning experience by incorporating a plethora of advanced coding tools, such as 3D game engines, 2D physics, artificial intelligence, augmented reality, databases, and debugging capabilities.

At Creaticode, we believe that young learners should not be confined to mastering a single programming language to harness new technologies and address real-world problems. All too often, students become entangled in the intricacies of language syntax and framework specifications, causing them to lose interest in computer science before they can meaningfully apply their knowledge.

In light of AI advancements like ChatGPT, which can seamlessly translate between any two programming languages, we advocate for a paradigm shift in computer science education. By emphasizing creative problem-solving rather than language syntax, we aim to inspire and empower the next generation of technology leaders. Utilizing a user-friendly, Scratch-based interface, Creaticode equips students with the necessary tools to rapidly elevate their skills and create applications that carry real-life significance.
