About this camp

Tech Academy Summer STEM Camps offer hands-on, project-based learning experiences where kids actively engage in building, coding, and designing. Campers can expect to code games using platforms like Scratch, Python, Java, and web design, build and program robots with LEGO Mindstorms EV3 and VEX systems, and explore Minecraft and Roblox modding. Through 3D printing camps, students learn CAD software like Tinkercad to design and create models, including Harry Potter-inspired objects, Nintendo characters, and D&D figures. Digital film making camps teach students to shoot, edit, and publish their own videos, covering techniques for better shots, lighting, and audio. Engineering challenges involve designing and building structures like bridges and catapults, fostering problem-solving and creative thinking. The curriculum is designed to reinforce academic skills while developing critical thinking, teamwork, and problem-solving abilities, with many projects being tangible creations that students can take home.
