We start by familiarizing all campers with the subject in focus with mini and quick projects, nothing too serious at this point. Campers get to meet each other, make friendships that will become helpful bonds throughout the week. By the end of day one, campers will have the big picture of the week in mind and feel ready to take on the rest of the week.
Cyber Security Camp
Our Cyber Security camp teaches students to be safe and successful citizens in our networked world. These lessons are reinforced by gamification techniques, using Interland, an adventure-packed online platform that makes learning about digital safety and citizenship interactive and fun – just like the Internet itself.
Five fundamental topics of digital safety and citizenship form the Internet Code of Security:
• Share with Care (Be Internet Smart)
• Don’t Fall for Fake (Be Internet Alert)• Secure Your Secrets (Be Internet Strong)
• It’s Cool to Be Kind (Be Internet Kind)
• When in Doubt, Talk It Out (Be Internet Brave)
This camp runs Monday – Friday from 9 am – 3:00 pm. For extended hours, before-care (8 am-9 am) and after-care (3:30 pm-6 pm) may be purchased at an additional cost during checkout.
Camp Overview:
Campers begin to explore a wide range of concepts around the theme of the camp. They learn from our expert tutors through guided practice as they start to get a grasp of the curriculum. By the end of day two, campers will be ready for more hands-on activities on day three.
Campers begin to partner up with each other to implement the concepts learned so far. Campers are presented with more challenging projects and encouraged to collaborate to solve complex problems. By the end of day three, campers are ready to begin to develop original ideas for the capstone project.
Campers will start to develop, design, and implement their project ideas. They are encouraged to take the lead and come up with initiatives based on all they have learned throughout the week. By the end of day four, campers are ready for their final presentation.
The atmosphere is already beaming with excitement and curiosity at this point as campers get ready to make final presentations to demonstrate their knowledge and mastery of the concepts learned throughout the week.
