Wild Weather | Grades 4-8 (July 9th)
Want to forecast the weather? Use computers to access current information and images, look back at Earth from the GOES satellite and use live Doppler radar just like the experts! You’ll make green-screen weather forecast videos just like the pros, and use high-tech probes and monitors. You will build your own weather instruments, then take them home to watch the weather!
Genetics & Genomics | Grades 4-8 (July 16th)
Extract DNA, do DNA fingerprinting, see how bacteria can hurt and help, find out how family trees work, explore genome mapping, genetic medicines, and track your own genetic traits.
Robotics: Mindstorms EV3 | Grades 4-8 (July 16th)
Let your mind go with LEGO Mindstorms EV3. We’ll show you how to build and program the latest from LEGO. You’ll work with a team in contests and challenges designed to test your skills. Get thinking outside the ‘bot to make new robotics creations and contraptions!
Computers: Animation | Grades 4-8 (July 16th)
From classic cels to the latest motion-capture systems, we’ll show you how the pros work. You’ll create original short animations using hand and computer tools, stop-action and “tweening” tools. You’ll showcase your final masterpiece on a DVD and in our web gallery!
