Applied Computing Foundation ("ACF") offers comprehensive programming curriculum for kids from 7 to 18. We specialize in getting beginners on boarding to programming concepts through hands-on projects, transition them to general purpose programming and eventually become fluent with it. Getting kids ready for the future and connect them to the real world through competition experience, product development and projects combined with their interest. In addition to technical competency, we emphasize 5C: critical thinking, communication, collaboration, creativity and community.
Join ACF Lego robotics camp (Lego Wedo, Lego Spike, Mindstorm), learn fundamental and get competition experience. ACF is a proud regional host of World Robot Olympiad and First Lego League.
<Grade incoming 1st-3rd grade>
During the camp, students will create robots of various themes! They will learn physical science concepts of structure design - pulleys, levers, gears, wheels and axels, and of course, coding concepts to bring life to their creations. In the afternoon, they will be introduced to another robot to reinforce the coding concept & hardware programming they learn in the morning. We will finish the week with mockup competition.
