Presenter Biography:

Joek van Montfort: I’m educated as a mathematician but spend most of my current working time on getting computational thinking into Dutch education. Scratch is one of my favorites and I organized two Scratch conferences (Barcelona 2013 and Amsterdam 2015). Beside that I’m active in localisation of CSunplugged.org and in setting up a Dutch chapter of Computing At School (CAS).
