Computer Science jobs represent the fasted growing segment of jobs in all STEM fields. Programs are designed to engage young children and help them advance from being merely computer users to creators.
Robotics I
Robotics is for everyone!
Participants learn the basics of computer programming and apply it to design robots to complete various challenges. The program specifically designed for young students and complete beginners, bundles designing, building, problem-solving, computer programming, critical thinking, collaboration and communication into one exciting program.
Participants will design, build and program Lego® WeDo robots. Creations include playing robots and mechanical contraptions.
Game Making Lab™ I
Create your own computer games!
We experience computers and its digital creations every day. It is not enough to just know how to use a computer anymore. Creating, developing computational thinking and ability to personalize & customize applications to solve your problems are needed skills too. With industry and academia pioneers, Microsoft and MIT, STEM For Kids brings the Game Making Lab. Participants work with leading edge tools and learn to program and express their creativity as game, story and animation.
Website Design Lab™ I
Weave your own web!
Over 700,000 search queries are made on Google every minute! These searches lead us to various websites. Businesses, organizations, families and individuals develop websites to create their unique digital presence on the web. What does it take to create one?
In this beginner workshop, participants learn how to create a basic website from scratch.
Robotics II
Design and program multiple robots!
Participants learn the basics of computer programming and apply it to design robots to complete various challenges. The program bundles designing, building, problem-solving, computer programming, critical thinking, collaboration and communication into one exciting program.
Participants will design, build and program using Lego® NXT Mindstorm robots. Fun robotic creations include mini-rovers, remote controlled bots, catapults and check-out scanners!
Computer Programming I
My First Programs!
This is an exciting introduction to computer programming for young kids in grades K-3. Curriculum is designed to engage young minds and help them advance from being merely computer users to creators. Participants learn the basics of creating using computers through drag-and-drop programming and apply it to create simple programs, animations and games.
Computer Programming II
An Introduction to Computer Coding
Participants learn the basics of computer coding and apply it to create simple programs, animations and games. Activities include drag-and-drop programming specifically designed to ease children into computer programming leading up to simple programming in a fun variation of BASIC language.
