Description of Event

Robot Coder: Tech Adventure Workshop (Grades 1st - 5th) Dive into the world of robotics as your student programs, drives, and controls "Dash" robots! Technology Adventure Camp's Robot Coding Workshop emphasizes hands-on coding activities through games, puzzles, and challenges... with robots! Electronic Game Design: Technology Adventure Workshop (Grades 1st - 5th) Let's combine Computer Science & Electrical Engineering skills together in this exciting STEAM Workshop where we make our video game controllers using household supplies such as posterboard, colors, and of course electricity! Students will learn the concepts of circuits as they leverage the Makey Makey microcontroller to control video games of their choice. Our Mission Although computer technology can be complex in it’s most advanced form, we believe that the building blocks of Mobile Technology (smartphones, tablets, etc.) are often concepts that are grasped easier by youth than adults! Our mission is to provide learning goals, opportunities, and activities that are tailored specifically for elementary and middle-school age students. We fulfill our mission by providing workshops, after-school programs and summer camps that teach computer programming, engineering, and typing fundamentals to elementary and middle-school age kids. As students build their own Android apps, games, and design their own circuits projects, they gain the technology exposure and confidence they need to conquer a world brimming with smartphones, smartwatches, tablets, laptops and every kind of mobile technology device you can think of!
