University of California, Irvine

The Digital Media and Learning (DML) Research Hub at the University of California, Irvine, will develop widely available, easy to implement STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) programming, especially coding. The programming will use the online coding tool Scratch. This project grows out of the research from Connected Learning: An Agenda for Research and Design, and a current ongoing research project called Coding for All: Interest�Driven Trajectories to Computational Fluency, which focuses on exploring youth, connected learning, and STEM to create more equitable learning opportunities and to support youth as they bridge their interests to academic and future pathways.
