Parents, does your child spend hours at their computer or game console
playing Minecraft?
Well, that may not be a bad thing. This simple building-blocks game is one the few that successfully educates and entertains players. Among other reasons, it helps your child develop and improve their visuospatial reasoning skills (aka visual perception of objects). Using Java™ coding, students create brand new ideas and implement them into their very own worlds. Results will astound when written script transforms into a game, making Minecraft truly their own. Level 2 continues in the Spring Session with more advanced coding in Java.

How does the Engineering Design Process impact the function of robots?
By applying science and engineering concepts to design, create, and engineer a functional robot, students are exposed to the assembly and programming of mechanical/electrical devices. An Introduction to IoT prepares students to build their first Internet of Things device in Part 2.
Each student builds and takes home their own robot and mini-computer

How are human functions designed into robots?
While learning concepts to design, create, and engineer a functional robot, skills include programming, ultra sound, light, touch, and other robotic sensors plus the basics of motors, gears, sensors, batteries, programming and assembly of mechanical and electrical devices. Robotic skills are applied in several exciting events! Students build and take home their own Robots!

How do video games use coding to generate movement and visual and
audio effects?
Students get a fun introduction to the Python programming language and object-oriented coding through the use of Blender, a professional 3-D computer graphics software toolset used for creating animated films, visual effects, art, 3-D printed models, interactive 3-D applications and video games. As you build your own games, explore basic programming, concepts and learn to write in real code, you will enhance your games with images and sound.

How are computers made and how does coding really work?
Spend your first day assembling a pi-top laptop from a Raspberry Pi and other circuit boards (that's yours to take home). Learn to troubleshoot hardware assembly and experience the thrill of booting up the laptop—that you built—for the first time. Then it's on to Python programming and electrical engineering. With an introduction to what hardware, engineering, and coding have to offer, this course has something for everyone.
Each student takes home their own laptop computer.
