MIT is an excellent university with outstanding education and facilities for faculty and students of every age. My father studied Quantum Mechanics at MIT many years ago before he became an aerospace engineer. MIT developed a special program used at many universities created for highly gifted students with Aspergers Syndrome that helps them cope in a stressful university setting using computer technology with highly individualized exercises involving small motor coordination.Many students are successfully enrolled studying computers and physics enjoying every moment while they thrive becoming more socially involved each day. One of my favorite programs at MIT is the program developed for younger children, their parents and educators. Scratch teaches children programing though coding using common computer languages. My six year old cousin is enrolled in Scratch after having been introduced to Scratch at his elementary school. He has devolved his own unique programs including an animated orange that dances perpetually 24 hours a day to the music he created.on the Moog Synthesizer with the help of his father,a professional musician. He absolutely loves Scratch devoting his childhood years to coding. His mother is an oceanographic meteorologist using computers every moment at work is often available to help him use Scratch when he calls her to finish a more sophisticated coding project. MIT helps people learn technology with some of the most famous teachers in the world. It's a world class university!
