Half-day: 8:45–11:30 a.m.
Learn to program your own pocket-size computer! Campers will explore computer programming with J-Blocks, a drag and drop coding editor, and then progress to a more formal programming language, Python, all while working with the micro:bit. The micro:bit is an inexpensive, pocket-size codable computer. It is a system-on-chip with 25 LED lights, two programmable buttons, a compass, and motion and temperature sensors. Since the micro:bit editors are all web-based, campers may continue to work on their projects at home during and after the class! Campers will learn programming by building and coding a stopwatch, a thermometer, a traffic light, and a pedometer. Individuals will then select from a variety of more advanced projects. At the conclusion of the session, each student will receive their own micro:bit kit to build fun projects for the rest of the summer! No prior experience with programming necessary!
