Our hearts literally melted when we received this email and video send by Kim, an instructor at Gretna Academy #2 from her 4th and 5th grade students. This makes all our hard work worth it!

Maker Boot Camp broadens the imagination of New Orleans’ youth

Comments Off on Maker Boot Camp broadens the imagination of New Orleans’ youth

IDIYA offers Summer Camps that broaden the imagination of New Orleans’ youth. Maker Boot Camp, a summer camp designed to teach young people valuable STEM Maker skills, allows students to put those newly learned skills to use by combining 3D Design, Electronics, Programming, 3D Printing, Laser Cutting into a project they build during the week. This isn’t just another boring school class. This is fun stuff! Young folks need to learn the basics of innovation and invention so they can pull ideas from their head and make them reality! Our youth are our future. Who knows what they will come up with next? Maybe the next great invention will come from one of the kids who attended IDIYA’s Maker Boot Camp.

Watch this video and see what kids learned in the last Maker Boot Camp. Enrollment is still open for the last Maker Boot Camp of the Summer. Dates are July 27-31, 2015. Sign up now!

Register for the next Maker Boot Camp at IDIYA.
