Discover Summer at Grand River Academy
Throughout two-week sessions, campers built, flew, and coded their own robots and drones. After completing their drones and robots, campers designed a website to bring their creations to market.
Exploring Robotics
Campers explored coding and computational thinking through hands-on experiences with a variety of programmable robots including mBots, Ozobot Evos, Edisons, and Sphero SPRK+.
Junior Adventures With Robots
Young campers were introduced to the fundamentals of coding as they explored a variety of programmable robots including Blue-Bots, Ozobot Evos, Edisons, and Sphero SPRK+.
Full STEAM Ahead with LEGO庐 SPIKE鈩 Essential
LEGO庐 SPIKE鈩 Essential is LEGO鈥檚 learning platform for amplifying children鈥檚 understanding of concepts for science, technology, literacy, and math. Campers engaged in hands-on investigation of STEAM concepts as they built with LEGO庐 elements and program with the intuitive SPIKE鈩 App.
3D Digital Design for Augmented Reality and Printing
Campers used 3DSlash and Maker Empire to design 3D projects for printing and use CoSpaces and Merge Cubes to create augmented reality projects. Each camper also printed out one of their projects to take home.
Digital Game Design
Campers built from their excitement for video games and learned to design and program their own playable digital games using tools such as RPG Maker MV and more.
YWSI is a week-long program sponsored by the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) for middle school girls in Ohio. Designed to provide hands-on experience with computers, math, science and engineering, YWSI helped girls develop an interest in these subjects by allowing them to work on practical, interesting scientific problems using the latest computer technology.
