A part of the of Dadlihack 3.0 series of events, the Creative Computing Camp consists of three one-day sessions, which catersto 18 students and two accompanying teachers each day. In total, over 50 students and 20 teachers will be reached with this program.<\/p>\n

Students are being trained in physical computing (robotics) with microbit and app development using the Appshed platform. The days are split into three learning ‘chunks’, microbit and introduction to coding in general; physical computing (robotics) using move and arm kits; and finally, mobile app development with the potential for IoT. Teachers learn alongside the students during the three days.<\/p>
