Students will then move to programming Wonder robots to achieve various objectives and solve challenges. Throughout the camp, students will tackle narrative-based challenges, sharpening their critical thinking and problem-solving skills while building confidence and enhancing technological proficiency.
Topics Covered
• Explore algorithms and coding in the Path App.
• Practice design thinking and build environments for Dash to navigate.
• Discover engineering principles and outfit Dash to solve challenges.
• Build narrative adventures for Dash to complete.

Learning Outcomes

Engineering and Technology Proficiency

Students will acquire foundational skills in robotics engineering by building and programming Wonder robots. This includes understanding robotic design basics, programming movements, and responses and applying these skills to solve narrative-based challenges.
Critical Thinking and Problem-Solving Skills
Students will enhance their critical thinking and problem-solving abilities through hands-on challenges with Wonder robots. They will learn to approach problems systematically, think creatively to find solutions, and adapt to various scenarios.
Physical Development and Team Collaboration
Students will participate in various sports to develop physical coordination, fitness, and social skills like teamwork, communication, and sportsmanship. This holistic approach supports physical education and social-emotional learning, balancing technological skills with physical and cooperative play.

Sample Schedule

Here’s a sample of what a week in this course could look like. Remember, our experienced instructors will build the right camp for your student, and this outline demonstrates some of the key materials and the overall camp experience.

Monday: Explore Algorithms & Meet Dash

Students will discover how Dash operates through coding in the Path App and explore the concepts of algorithms and design thinking.

Tuesday: Narrative Adventures with Dash

Engaging in hands-on fun with Dash, students will experience a full design cycle from hearing a story-based challenge to building an environment that matches the story to coding Dash to overcome the challenges of the adventure and achieve the quest-like objectives.

Wednesday: Path App and Go App with Dash

Leveraging the coding knowledge and design thinking students have gathered in the first two days of camp, they will continue with narrative challenges, trying both the Path and Go Apps for coding.

Thursday: Build Your Own Adventure

Armed with coding knowledge, robot design strategies, and creativity, students will begin to build their own narrative adventures and challenges, leading each other through fun storylines with Dash.

Friday: Final Adventure and Showcase

All of the weeks accomplishments will be celebrated today as students have fun with some competitive Dash challenges and build a final narrative adventure to showcase their week’s accomplishments.

Course Format

This course is part of a weeklong summer camp running Monday through Friday. Your child will learn in a small group setting from an experienced instructor. An exciting daily schedule balances learning and exploration of this topic with a variety of outdoor and recreational activities within the larger camp setting. Aftercare options are available based on location.
