When you think of your neighborhood, what makes it unique? Students will design and print their most favorite pieces of their neighborhood. Students will design parks,houses and even stores that are popular in their communities.
Students learn how real world problems often include some sort of math! Ever wondered how many donuts you could buy with your allowance, or how many app store downloads you can afford a week? All of those are real world math problems! Come explore math in a fun and relatable way!
Drag and drop programming introduces students to a higher level of coding, it includes more features and freedom than block based coding while still being approchable. Fun activities await in this natural evolution of block based coding.
Students implement special effects into their very own stop motion film! they learn about Special Effects, lighting and even camera controls that will take their movie to the next level!
This cog will explore the art of mosaics and collages. Students will learn how multiple pieces tie into one project to develop a piece of art that is collaborative, but also uniform.
Coding & Programming: Bug Hunters via Principles of Programming
Description
Ready for bug hunting? No, not the outdoorsy kind, the kind you find in computers! In the course of nine (9) modules, students will be finding and fixing bugs that gradually grow in complexity through different scenarios.
Students will learn how to fly drones and use them for commercial applications such as oil pipe inspection, land surveys, package delivery and many more.
Students are back to explore another Genre of films; Action! Students learn all about action films, how they're shot and their favorite action film stars. Students also create their own short action film.
Science and technology go hand in hand. Students will explore how technology has changed science as a discipline and how it has impacted the medical world.
This cog focuses on women artist through time and their contributions to the art world. Women like Georgia O'Keeffe, Frida Kahlo and Louise Nevelson will be covered as students create art pieces using similar media inspired by the subject matter of their work.
An important part of coding, variables are bits of coding that have the power to change based on what players or coders do. From rolling the dice, to counting steps, variables are incredibly flexible tools.
In this course students take designs that were previously developed and learn how to modify and complete them. Students will take designs that are already good and find ways to take them to the next level. They will take everyday designs and turn them into cutting-edge, out-of-this-world pieces!
Using Arduino circuit kits, students will learn all about how circuits work. This also introduces them to the C & C++ code that is used to provide input to the Arduino boards. We will then use these Arduino components to design cool gadgets that will move, blink and do other kinetic movements.
UAV Operators & FAA Regulations - Students will learn about the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) drone rules and regulations along with flight safety, all while flying their drones and practicing their piloting skills
Coding & Programming: My Not So Smart Assistant AI Development
Description
Using back end web technologies such as Node JS among others, students will build an Artificial Intelligence that will stream data from the ever-growing mystery that is the internet!
Students in this cog will design and build their own their own architectural designs. Students will learn to draft their own designs and understand what goes into building structures from bridges to tall skyscrapers.
In this course students learn all about the science that happens in our food, in our bodies and the food that is in our body. Have you ever wondered what happens to the food you chew? Or how food goes from a sandwich to energy you store and exert? This class teaches you all about those things and more!
Take a trip across the Mediterranean...in the Lab! Students will learn all about Mediterranean vast culture and how it impacts their culinary excellence!
An important part of coding, variables are bits of coding that have the power to change based on what players or coders do. From rolling the dice, to counting steps, variables are incredibly flexible tools.
Students are back to explore another Genre of films: Thriller! Students learn all about thriller films, how they're shot and their favorite film stars. Students also create their own short thriller film .
This lesson pack is based around the idea of a fully automated car (such as the Google car). In each lesson students will explore and program simplified versions of the underlying principles powering such a car. All while programming on a graphical coding environment (Mod- Kit).
Students will learn about Culinary Art! Through fun and exciting recipes, students will learn how food is presented as an art form in many cultures. Aprons On!
Cooking is not only fun, but there are many career options in the field of Culinary Arts! Students will get to explore careers in the culinary world, as well as learn some fun recipes that chefs would be cooking up!
Coding & Programming: Bug Hunters via Principles of Programming
Students will learn how to create projects, add characters, and how to use the
programming blocks to make their characters animate on screen. They will explore
coding and computational thinking practices as they utilize technology as a tool for
creativity, expression and learning with the PBS KIDS ScratchJr app.

Minecraft: Variables - The Change Up
Students will complete projects by learning to code and mod Minecraft.
Variables are an important part of coding, these are bits of coding that have the power to
change based on what players or coders do. From rolling the dice, to counting steps,
variables are incredibly flexible tools that students in this cog will learn how to mold and
manipulate.
