Abstract: The GEN10S Portugal project offered 15-hour face-to-face Scratch programming courses to groups of students and two or more teachers from each class, from schools that were project members. Two Scratch teachers per class, hired by the project, participated in 12 of these 15 hours, supporting the activities. When the schools' face-to-face activities stopped, in January 2021, a 12-hour Scratch course was tested. This course was then replicated 11 times, between July and August 2021, involving 132 students. In this article, we will use a qualitative methodology to analyse the perspectives of the teachers involved in the course in which they were trainers. The results obtained point to the fact that the trainers consider that the courses went well, and the objectives were achieved. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
