Description:
Virtual -Software Engineering: Scratch Sensing Monday to Thursday, 9:00 AM – 12:00 AM, Dec 27th – Dec 31st Programming and coding are becoming necessary skills for various fields of engineering. Many of today’s
5 days program
engineers spend most of their time in front of a computer: processing, analyzing, and extracting data to
help them design, test and improve products and tools. With coding and programming knowledge,
today’s engineers can work faster and come up with more creative design solutions that otherwise
would be out of reach without programming. Scratch introduces children to programming in a logical
way by opening the door to the world of programming. Just as any student can be an engineer, any
student can program! Some Examples of types of engineers that use programming are:
Chemical engineers use programming to run simulations, analyze results, or do large filesystem
tasks that would be tedious by hand
Mechanical and Industrial engineers use unique software to program the robots and machines
that help make many of the products that we buy
Electrical engineers use programming to write simulations and collect data for testing designs
What’s more fun than playing an interactive video game? Writing one! Video sensing allows students to
design and program their own video games and then test them by interacting with the program via
webcam. In this Scratch program, students work together to create their own games, art, and musical
instruments while exploring coding foundations. Get up and get moving with Engineering for Kids and
Scratch: Video Sensing!
