NEW VIRTUAL PROGRAMS:  The virtual camps are combination of online instructor led training and offline projects to reduce the screen time. Come have FUN with us as we harness the opportunity to think, to imagine, to create and to explore! All virtual camps held on Zoom. Each student will need a computer or laptop with an Internet connection.

Virtual- Coding in Augmented & Virtual Reality
Students learn coding, 3D design about augmented and virtual reality by creating virtual tours, storytelling, games and simulations. The beauty of this approach is that it allows for creativity and coding in multiple dimensions (3D, voiceover, music, video etc.). There is no limit to what one can create!  
Virtual- 3D Modeling & Design
3D modeling and design teaches important STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Math) concepts and design thinking. It helps unlock children’s natural drive to create, share and explore. Students learn how to design simple 3D models and prepare them for 3D printing.  They make things from scratch.
Virtual- Game Development in MIT Scratch
Students are introduced to creative coding through fun and engaging projects, stories and animations. In this tested & proven curriculum, we plan to help students develop into logical thinkers, problem solvers and creators through creative coding projects using Scratch. Students adventure through code as they begin creating animations, games, music, and videos of their super heroes. They also collaborate on projects and share their projects online. This program allows students to develop 21st century skills through the use of technology. No prior coding experience needed.

Virtual- Web Design & Development- HTML, CSS & JavaScript
Ready to make your mark onquely built based on the area of interest of child - hobbies, business idea, and social impact. They get to own the site and continue building on it even after the class!! No prior coding experience needed.

Virtual- Animation & Games in Javascript
JavaScript is one of the most widely used programming languages out there as it is built into every web browser. JavaScript is used to build interactive websites and make web development easier and more attractive. Learners will create engaging interactive GUI projects, animations and visual pieces that they would have fun while creating, it will also let them build a strong foundation for software development.
Virtual- Learn Python by Building Animations & Games
Python is currently considered to be the MOST popular programming language in the world! Python is widely used across multiple industries like artificial intelligence & robotics. This camp is designed to help students learn building interactive applications using Python. Learners create interesting GUI projects and games in the course. Our aim is to provide fun projects, so students have fun while learning important computing concepts!



The following programs are split into sessions. Each session has an AM class and an PM class, these can be taken as half day classes or combined as a full day. If campers choose full day they need to bring a lunch which will be supervised from 12 - 1 PM.

Session 1: AM - Super Hero themed Programming Adventures
: Students adventure through code as they begin building animations, games, music, videos. They sculpt their coding muscles in this coding adventure and leave having learnt to code using Scratch!! No prior coding experience needed. Cancelled



Session 1: PM - Battle Bots: Learn how to build your WeDo and Ev3 bots and bring them to action by adding code. Debug real time bots applying the concepts learnt in class and then transition into the world of the engineering & robotics with Sphero, Lego WeDo and Lego Mindstorms. Great class for engineers of tomorrow!! Cancelled

Session 2: AM -  Modding in Minecraft: Students get to go beyond just playing Minecraft, they get to program it! They create mods in Minecraft by learning programming concepts and applying them to realize their ideas. We are excited see what amazing ideas and "mods" students come up with! No prior coding expereince needed Cancelled

Session 2: PM - Fly and code drones: Experience the thrill of control, coding and flying Drones! Learn computer science fundamentals through hands-on experimentation. Use both block and text-based coding to control drones. Start with simple programs where you automate drone’s flight path, learn to build your own custom drone controller. Cancelled

Session 3: AM - Robot Petting Zoo: Student participate in "makeathon" to create a robotic pet to delight and inspire visitors to the petting zoo. They construct their pets from familiar materials such as cardboard and craft supplies and use robotic components and programming to bring their creations to life.

Session 3: PM - Game Building: Learners use Scratch to build games. Projects are assigned based on the learners skill.

Session 4: AM - Mobile App Development: Learn mobile app programming using MIT App Inventor. Build Android mobile apps and get your ideas published online. App Inventor allows you to create real applications for Android devices. Classes are customized to age appropriate projects. No prior coding experience needed

Session 4: PM - Artificial reality and Virtual Reality: Step in our Virtual Reality camp to get real-time opportunities and to magnify your stance with regard to the virtual horizon. Learnings extend from base handling of spare parts to fix them to bring parts into life, we will teach you all in our Virtual Reality Camp. Our intensive classes will let you remain tech-focused and hence exploring different horizons of tech advancements while utilizing your ability to let you be a part of it.
