Science Activities
Camps include the following:
- Robotics using Lego Education – Don’t be fooled by the Lego title, this is cool stuff. Students build LEGO Robots and use computer programming skills to make the Robots work. We’ll get the Robots to kick ball and work their way through a maze.
- CSI – We will take you through the gorey details of CSI Science. Use Metallic Shavings to lift fingerprints. Learn about basic DNA and extract DNA from a kiwi.
- Electronics – Wire a Burgler Alarm, Use Fruit to power a clock.
Young Scientist Tanzania
The Science activities will include experiments from the “Lab-in-a-bag” from the Young Scientist Tanzania. We are teaming up with Oysterbay Secondary school and Kenton High school, both located in Dar es Salaam to run experiments. We hope to have Skype video links between the camps and one of these schools. Brendan from Young Scientist Tanzania has really set us some challenges for these experiments.
