Description:

Perhaps our most popular and successful tech camp gets better every year. Critical thinking, problem-solving, and disciplined creativity will all be challenged and engaged in this intensive, weeklong, full day camp (no camp on Friday). This camp will introduce students to Java, the world’s most popular and important programming language. Using the object oriented structures of Java, students will learn to use an IDE (Interactive Development Environment) to design and compile programs, learn the basic constructs of programming structures and objects, and practice their new knowledge on fun projects (e.g., basic game design, calculators, etc.). Java is the official language of the AP Computer Science A Exam, and your daughter or son will leap ahead with the highly extensible skills and knowledge presented in this immersive camp experience. No prior programming experience required – basic keyboarding ability (QWERTY) and nothing more. Camp attendees must bring their own computer; Windows or Apple / Mac work equally well. iPads/tablets will not work.
