OctoStudio a new App from MIT Media Labs

by James Robson News

“OctoStudio transforms how young people use mobile phones and tablets, enabling them to create their own stories and games anytime, anywhere. Children can take photos and record sounds, bring them to life with coding blocks, and send their projects to friends and family.

Launched October 24, 2023, OctoStudio is developed by the Lifelong Kindergarten research group at the MIT Media Lab; the Lifelong Kindergarten group also created Scratch, the world’s most popular coding language for kids. OctoStudio is completely free of charge, without any ads or in-app purchases.” – https://www.media.mit.edu/

A fun and playful app. Block coding much like Scratch or ScratchJr. Best suit middle to senior primary aged students.
