The camp utilizes the Socratic Method, where instructors ask targeted questions instead of lecturing, empowering students to think independently and solve problems on their own.
Camp Coding Space offers a meaningful and engaging summer experience for kids aged 8-13, focusing on developing computational thinking skills, intellectual confidence, self-expression, and independence through coding. Campers engage in project-based coding using Scratch, JavaScript, and Python, with personalized instruction through the Socratic Method. The curriculum is designed to challenge students at their individual skill levels, allowing both beginners and more experienced coders to thrive. Beyond coding, the camp integrates STEM subject explorations and a variety of screen-free activities such as scavenger hunts, botany, cooking, science experiments, board games, and creative writing. Daily outdoor time and group activities are also incorporated to foster collaboration and friendships. The camp aims to provide a safe, inclusive, and fun learning environment where students can discover their passions and grow as thinkers and problem-solvers.
Mornings focus on core coding and problem-solving with projects in Scratch, JavaScript, and Python, while afternoons offer campers a choice of 'Tech Pathways' to delve deeper into areas like Game Design, Robotics, or Digital Art.
The ideal student is a child aged 8-13 who is eager to explore coding, STEM subjects, and hands-on activities in a supportive and challenging environment.
