| dc.description.abstract | ScratchR, a user generated content management platform, was developed by the Lifelong Kindergarten group at the MIT Media Lab. ScratchR lets users share projects developed with the Scratch programming language. This thesis involves technical improvements made to ScratchR from August 2007 to August 2008. Improvements include the addition of a comment reply system, the improvement of the gallery system, the addition of AJAX functionality, the creation of administration tools and the addition of a peer review system for comments and tags. These features augment the user experience of the Scratch online community by improving usability and by creating a friendlier online learning environment. | en_US |
