Camp Tech, a dynamic summer camp for students entering grades 3-8, took place from July 15th to 19th at Washington and Jefferson College. The camp offered an exciting and immersive experience in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Each day, students rotated through four enriching sessions designed to stimulate their curiosity and foster a love for STEM.
*Programming AI with Scratch*
Students learned to program artificial intelligence using Scratch, introducing them to logical and computational thinking and object-oriented programming.
*Pathways to Innovation: Exploring Engineering Careers*
This session introduced students to various engineering fields, including aerospace, biomedical, environmental, civil, and mechanical engineering. It broadened their understanding of diverse career paths and essential skills.
*Robotics Exploration with LEGO Mindstorms EV3*
In this session, students unleashed their creativity and problem-solving skills by building and programming their own robots, promoting teamwork and a deeper understanding of STEM concepts.
*RoboBuilders: Explore, Create, Innovate*
Students delved into robotics and makerspace activities using Hummingbird Robotics Kits. They learned basic robotics concepts, coding, and engineering principles while designing and building interactive creations.
Camp Tech equips students with critical thinking skills and inspires a lifelong interest in STEM, preparing them for future innovation and success in these fields.
