Camp Descriptions:
Tinkering
Perfect for those engineers who love LEGO building AND technology! Rise to the electronics challenges of wiring up a doorbell to your Eco-friendly LEGO house or design a fully functioning garage door opener with circuits you have designed yourself!! With many different design projects to choose from, the only limitation is your imagination!
Robotics
From coding with our Ozobots to programming our EV3 Mindstorm units, our awesome Zaniac instructors will lead your discovery into cybernetics and the robot control loop: Sense, Think, Act! This fun program ends with a competition!
3D Printing
Creating physical objects from a digital design! Wow! Let our instructors guide you through the design process using CAD-based software, orient a print, think critically to solve problems and see your designs come to life!
Scratch
Computer Programming is a highly useful skill that teaches vital problem-solving, creativity, and communication skills (plus it’s also a LOT of fun!). Join us for Intro to Scratch and you can use this intuitive interface to create your own animations, tell stories or design games to develop digital fluency.
Simple Machines
Simple machines are the elementary building blocks of which all, more complex, machines are composed. Using technical LEGO, our super-cool instructors will explain the fundamentals of mechanics and applied science whilst you get to work on designing and building your own simple machines. Watch out for the catapults!
Minecraft Exploration
Learn to navigate by coordinates within your world to find the next clue and complete the Math and Science challenges or learn about gravity and velocity whilst letting your creative engineer side build an intricate rollercoaster.
Minecraft Galaxy
Secure your oxygen masks, we’re going to space! From the basics of actually getting into space to landing on Mars, learn about the galaxy as you go on an interplanetary adventure.
Kerbal Space Program
In Kerbal Space Program, our instructors help students acquire, and creatively apply, math, physics and engineering knowledge by designing, constructing and launching rockets in the fictitious and fun world of Kerbin! Set goals, build rockets, evaluate mission results, change designs, and try again!
App Creation
Even newcomers can build Apps right in their own web browser! Using a graphical interface (similar to Scratch) Zaniac instructors will show you how to drag and drop visual objects to create an application that can run on Android devices. Build and create your own Apps to take home and share!
