STEM Lab

In our STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Art) Lab, campers will create! They learn how to design their own computer games, robotic systems, programs, animations, sound effects, digital art, and more. Through hands-on projects, they explore real-world applications of programming while expressing their creativity.

Younger campers dive into LEGO WeDo robotics kits, programming animated sequences and bringing their creations to life. Older campers take on more advanced challenges, either by building their own computer and programming it or using laptops to work with LEGO MindStorms robotics kits. Regardless of their level, all campers will build, program, and run their own creations, gaining confidence in their technical skills.

Our curriculum introduces elements of Scratch, Boolean logic, animation, movement, layers, sound effects, MIDI sequencing, Audacity, GIMP, and debugging. Whenever possible, we incorporate free, open-source technology so campers can continue their learning beyond the summer.

Through exploration, problem-solving, and innovation, our STEM program empowers campers to see themselves as creators, engineers, and future innovators!
