Students will build, learn to code, and then design and iterate their robot design to accomplish a series of 3 to 15 missions depending on how many weeks of camp they participate in. Camps are designed to allow for 1 or more weekly sessions to extend learning that builds on prior sessions, but does not require all sessions to continue learning.
