    XinCheJian science and technology summer camp 

    IS COMING!

    • Time: August 17, 2016 - August 21, 2016 

    • Age group: Above 12 year-old

    • Language: English, with Chinese TA.


    Class Schedule


    With the purpose of helping kids fully develop themselves, this camp colltects classes like Arduino, robot, game design, teamwork and design thinking classes etc. On the one hand, it encourages students to be interested intechnology and in getting their hands dirty; on the other hand, it can improve students' teamwork spirit, communication skills and leadership experience.

    Classes will start from intro to difficult level, help kids who don't have experience start, and give challenges to experienced students.

    Class Details


    Arduino Introduction 

    1.Introduction to microcontrollers and definitions of robots

    2. Deploying a development environment

    3. Use code examples to learn about sensors and actuators

    Arduino Robot Mechanics

    1. Assemble the mechanical part of the Robot.

    2. Introduction to IR data transmission and creation of personal communication with the Robot.

    Arduino Robot programming 

    Arduino code intro and test several variations on the Robot. Be a programmer!


    Engineer robot with polymorph plastic 

    1. Robot Footbowl Competition

    2. Polymorph plastic prototyping to personalize the Robot.

    Jump out of the box - Design thinking practice 

    Content comes from Stanford d.school. Through lecture of design thinking and then use different practices, exerciese student think of things in different angle.

    Engineering Construction Challenge 

    Participants become teams, and each team is given the same materials and must work together to make a tower. At the end of the exercise,

    the team with the tallest tower is the winner. Next, teams are given a chance to discuss teamwork strategies based on their observations

    and insights from the first exercise. Finally, teams will be given a certain amount of “currency”. Their job is to use the currency to buy

    basic materials and then use the materials to build the tallest possible tower.


    Engineering Company Simulation Challenge 

    Good communication skill is important for students. Participants become teams, and each team splits in half. The two parts of the teams are the design group and the operations group, and they are separated from each other. The design group receives a pattern, and it is their job to communicate the pattern to the operations group, which must make the light-following robot drive in the correct pattern. There is a time limit for the exercise.

    Game Design Workshop Part 1 

    Participants learn about the basics of game design, including the different game formats, game elements, and player types. They use tools to develop their own original games.

    Game Design Workshop Part 2

    Participants use software to design and share computer games.

    Robot obstacle Race 

    Use the robot made in Eduardo's class, and also the design thinking method, communication skills and team spirit to do the obstable race and also enjoy the ending of the camp!
