MOOC allows the audience to learn independently online, and the open learning platform enables people from different background to connect with one another in the virtual space.  Regardless of the age and occupation of the users, this blog post, or the page, can be used as MOOC by providing basic information on how I learned how to do coding using Scratch website.  Visit:  https://scratch.mit.edu/  It's 100% free and you can simply open an account by providing your email (so that you can start publishing your contents) and choosing a password. Both computers and mobile phones can be used to access the website and if you prefer to use the platform without internet, you can also download the program.  People who can join this blog will be able to take away any basic knowledge on how to create the account on Scratch and start creating their own content by watching a couple of videos that I benefited from. Want to know more about scratch? Let's drive right in to see some examples!
