This isn't your ordinary CS summer camp. pi-top makes computer science Summer Camp fun for everyone (even teachers)!
Most computer science camps revolve around building a robot and learning enough code to make it go. But we're here to shake things up! The pi-top CS Summer Camp has art, engineering, creativity, and collaboration.
We have taken the most creative lessons in Further and turned them into a Summer Camp curriculum - for camps from 1 to 3 weeks long, and for students of all skill levels.
What makes the camp fun for students?
Real-world Learning: Students will dive into exciting, real-world projects from creating robotic race cars to building a smart home, to combining art and technology in their very own zoetrope.
Engaging Activities: Activities for everyone, whether it’s using art skills for tunnel cards or competing with each other in a catapult competition, students will enjoy working together to create amazing projects.
Inclusivity and Collaboration: Lesson plans are designed to promote inclusivity and encourage collaboration between students.
Content for All Skill Levels: This Summer Camp content will be fun for students of all skill levels - from beginner to advanced.
What makes the camp easy and fun for teachers?
The pi-top Computer Science Summer Camp curriculum has everything you need to offer an exciting and educational camp - no experience necessary.
Some of the tools we provide include:
- Step-by-step instructions for each activity - unlike the IKEA™ instruction manuals, this is easy to understand and easy to follow, no CS skills required.
- Pacing guides - to make you look like the most organized teacher ever. Plan your days of computer science fun based on how much time you have.
- Comprehensive teacher guides - if your students get stuck, no need to panic! Just use the handy guide to help them - you don't even have to know how to code!
