Then, it details her pedagogical approach called "Code as Another Language" (CAL-Coding as Another Language), which understands the teaching of programming not only as problem solving but as an expressive activity that allows individuals to manipulate a socially situated symbolic system, with its grammar and syntax, to communicate ideas and to create shareable artefacts. The article describes ScratchJr and CAL as a playground where children learn by playing, inventing, creating and socializing. Este artículo describe el trabajo realizado por la autora y su equipo de colaboradores sobre el desarrollo del lenguaje de programación gratuito, ScratchJr,, para niños y niñas de 5 a 7 años. Luego, detalla su enfoque pedagógico llamado “Código como otro Lenguaje” (CAL-Coding as Another Language) que entiende la enseñanza de programación no sólo como resolución de problemas sino como una actividad expresiva que permite a los individuos manipular un sistema simbólico situado socialmente, con una gramática y sintaxis, para comunicar ideas y crear artefactos compartibles. El artículo describe ScratchJr y CAL como si fuera una plaza donde los niños aprenden jugando, inventando, creando y socializando.
