Learning through Engineering, Art and Design ("LEAD" for short) has devoted to develop Hong Kong teenagers' creativity education. The association introduced Scratch, which was free education software developed by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), into Hong Kong.  It lets students create an interactive story, a game and animation easily, also trains the students' logical mind from program computer software.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) planned to hold a Scratch meeting on 22th May 2010 all over the world synchronously, so participants can share their creation attainment and experience to each other. The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups responded with the function and invited the academic circle to join the event and the Education Bureau of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region had invited to be supporting organization. Also, the activity has been one of the Education Bureau Teacher training activities. The theme of Scratch Day Hong Kong 2010 is "Partnership in Learning with Scratch" which held on 22th May 2010 (Sat) in Cyber port, including Scratch Seminar cum Panel Discussion on Partnership in Learning, Scratch Workshops and Scratch Project Exhibition.

MIDbot had been invited to show the Scratch projects because of the positive feedback from a MIDbot event, "Easy Programming for Robot". Since the size of MIDbot is not suitable to the movement on the classroom table, we develop a new robot for educational use called MIDbot Mini. Regarding to the primary appearing of MIDbot Mini, the warm response from the academic circle is really inspiring. Hence, we prefer the MIDbot Mini will be for sale next month, please do not hesitate to inquire us:  852-27084097
