One-day Vacation Camps

One-day program designed to give students an introduction to programming with the Python language, and Robotic programming using Raspberry Pi controlled robots.

Students will spend the morning developing computer games and graphic drawing programs. Students will come home with at least two working programs to experiment on their own with. In the afternoon we will switch gears and experiment with robotics controlled by the credit card sized Raspberry Pi single board computer.

Students should come to camp with a laptop with Python 3.5 or 3.6 installed. You should also pack a morning snack.
