The camp that empowers pre-teens and teens to become leaders, innovators and entrepreneurs, giving them a digital headstart!

In our signature Change The World Innovation Camp, campers will gain first-hand experience at coding a game and animation (either using Scratch 2.0 or MIT App Inventor), building a Lego Mindstorms EV3 robot and programming it, and most excitingly - use the Stanford design thinking process to identify problems and brainstorm solutions, and create a tech-enabled business idea with a team!

At the end of this camp, campers will:

Be able to code an animation and a game using Scratch, or build an app using MIT App Inventor
Be able to assemble a robot and program it to execute movements and actions, and gain an understanding of logics
Grasp the concept of design thinking - the art of using empathy to identify real world problems, and ideating solutions
Be able to articulate the key components in a business proposal - marketing, sales, revenue, and cost
Learn to collaborate as a team to build a prototype and a business pitch
Experience pitching their business idea to parents and other campers
Have experienced and acquired key 21st century skills of critical thinking, problem solving, collaboration, and communication.

Schedule:

Day 1: Build a Robot

Campers will learn to build and code a robot using Lego Mindstorms EV3. They will use sensors to program it to move/ stop and other movements.

Day 2: Learn to Code

Campers will learn to code using Scratch 2.0. They will be creating their own animation depicting an alternate ending of Marvel's Infinity War, and also code their own "Chase the Cheese" game.

Day 3: Intro to Design Thinking

They will learn what it means to identify problems, and come up with potential solutions. They will start pitching their ideas and form teams to create a business plan.
