Broadview Heights: 2020 Weekend Fall Camp (6-12 years)
Robotics
Build and code amazing robots! Engineering and coding concepts are presented through our trained instructors and picture-based instructions. Students apply these concepts as they engage in exciting robotic challenges and explore solutions to problems in a fun environment. Equipped with our innovative robotics kits, which include motors, sensors, gears and main boards, students create robots of all shapes, sizes and functions!
Once made, the robots can be programmed and controlled in multiple means:
- Wired & wireless remote controls
- Kindle App with Bluetooth dongle
- Laptops with USB wire
There are different curricula to adjust for different experience levels. No prior experience is required.
Visual Programming / Coding
Throughout the Coding program, students will be introduced to a variety of coding techniques as they build their own games each day.
RoCode / Scratch are block-based visual programming language and online community targeted primarily at children. Users of the site can create online projects using a block-like interface. RoCode is developed by RoboThink and Scratch by the MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) Media Lab.
Advanced coding lessons focuses on teaching a different aspect of coding in a sequential manner, so that the student is never overwhelmed with too many new concepts. Each lesson is designed so that it can be completed by any skill level, no experience necessary!
