Would you like to animate and program a movie? Construct a robotic pet and direct it to do tricks? Design a video game featuring you and your friends as characters?
Join us at Geek Chic where being a computer geek is chic and coding is cool. You will rotate between three classes, taught by women computer scientists, as you learn computer skills while focusing on creative projects.
Create an animated film using Alice software, which includes worlds and characters that you can manipulate using programming basics such as loops, lists, and objects. Design and code your own video game using Game Maker. You will learn how to control characters, objects, and outcomes in your game, add more features, and increase the difficulty level. Construct a robotic animal using the Lego Mindstorm system and program it to act like a real pet. Make full use of light sensors, rotation sensors, and touch sensors to make the interaction with the pets as realistic as possible.
Out of class activities, both tech and non-tech, will allow you to interact with other campers in games and creative projects.
Registration is required and can be completed <a href="http://www.saturdayacademy.org/classes-camps/how-to-register/summer-registration"> on our website</a>.
Tuition: $399 for the week. Tuition assistance available. |
